This was our first time to Maui and my crew wanted to learn how to surf. I looked at a few different schools and this one ended up being the place I chose. Their lessons go later than any of the other surf companies. This means, you can do an activity in the morning and finish with this in the afternoon, or vise versa. Second, they have a professional photographer (a little pricey) that is worth every penny. All of goofy foot staff was top notch in customer service and was extremely helpful for my situation and great with my family; A+ professionalism. Last, our instructor, was a professional surfer and got everyone up on the board pretty quickly. My daughter struggled and he would not give up on her standing on the board. What an amazing experience! He definitely deserved a huge tip!!
The one thing I want to mention.. in a group lesson there are five people with the instructor and safety is of the highest importance. With that said, each individual had to wait until it was their turn to surf with the one instructor. If I got to do it differently, I would have paid for private lessons for each of the people in my crew. That way they would have gotten more experience.
I have to say, even though they had to take turns, it was one of the highlights of our vacation. I do not regret it and either will you!!
