This was an excellent beginner’s course on surfing. We were lucky to take an early class with Josh as our instructor. He was a great teacher, enthusiastic and fun to talk to. And we were up on our boards within the first few tries, much to our surprise! Could not recommend Royal Hawaiian Surf Academy enough - ask for Josh if you want an instructor with years of experience, a fun personality, and no judgement!…

Review of: Private Surf Lesson in Lahaina
My husband and I took a private surf lesson with Keoni that was awesome! We learned a lot, caught a ton of waves, and had a great time surfing. We really increased our confidence so we were able to rent boards and go out on our own a few days later. I’ve taken surf lessons before but never felt prepared for surfing on my own, but after one lesson with RHSA and Keoni, we were both ready to go. Thank you so much for an incredible experience. Highly recommend surf lessons with Keoni!…

My wife and I had a great experience with this surf academy. I am an idiot and when we showed up for our lesson on February 10th, I realized I booked it for the 17th. Oops. So I called the and tried to see if they could figure something out and they did. They called our instructor, Kioni, and he showed up 15 minutes later. I think I just got out of bed haha. Kioni was super nice and helpful. I highly recommend him as an instructor. …

My boyfriend and I took a surf lesson and Josh was our instructor. He was super nice, very patient, and great at instructing. We got up on a longboard numerous times and had a blast. We were able to take the skills we learned from his lesson and apply them a few days later when we rented boards on our own on the Big Island and were successful getting up again. Also, I wasn't inclined to buy the pictures at first, but after seeing the amazing quality and quantity we decided to buy the package. I don't remember the photographers name, but he does a great job also.…

Visited Maui for the first time and wanted to try surfing. I am incredibly uncoordinated and was expecting to be pretty terrible at it. Luckily I was in a class with everyone else that had never surfed before. Our instructor Josh was great, his coaching was top notch and by the end of the class I was able to surf a couple of waves on my own. Would for sure recommend Royal Hawaiian to anyone, I had a blast. …
