Unfortunately, some Maui surf schools are designed like cattle farms, get ’em in and get ’em out. They figure if you can get them standing on board long enough for a photographer to snap a photo, available for purchase later, then you’ve done your job. They offer little to no real instruction on how to actually catch a wave, which waves to catch or what to do once you’re up.
At Hawaiian Paddle Sports, we have made it our goal to change that.
Our passionate surf instructors are accomplished surfers who have the patience and attention to detail required to “stoke you out” on your first wave. Standing up on a board and riding a wave is the easy and fun part of surfing, but there is a lot of information that you’ll need to know first. Important things, like:
- surf etiquette
- wave selection
- where to be positioned on your board
- paddling for the wave
- how to jump up
- what to do once you’re up
In a private surf lesson on Maui you don’t have to worry about other guests’ abilities, or lack thereof. You’ll have your surf guide’s undivided attention on your party, so you’ll get the attention you need to improve so you can have your most memorable day of surfing. There simply isn’t anything better for surfing skill development than private surf lessons in Maui. If you’ve already taken a surf lesson and you’re looking to improve your surfing ability or style, we can help with that too.

“Best surf company on Maui”
“On our recent visit to Maui we decided to sign the kids (11 & 13) up for private surf lessons. The morning of the scheduled lessons we received a text changing the location due to higher winds at the originally planned local (much appreciated as the kids needed calm conditions!). We drove to the spot and found our instructor Billy easily. He was super friendly and put us all at ease. After reviewing both how to care for the reef and basic surfinstructions he took the kids out into the water. He had them catch waves one by one and was very careful to keep an eye on them both out in the water. They caught some good waves and came back in after almost 2 hours with huge smiles. The rest of the day we heard about how much fun Billy was. And to top it all off we were sent photos from the go-pro he mounted on their boards at no extra cost. It was great to see their smiles close up as they caught some waves! Thanks Billy you were amazing!!!

At Hawaiian Paddle Sports, your surfing instruction will come from an accomplished surfer, for whom surfing isn’t just a sport, but a way of life. Our private Maui surf lessons get you away from the large “surf schools” in Kihei and Lahaina so that we can take time required to teach you to SURF…not to simply stand up on a board.* Book your private, guaranteed to surf, surfing lessons today! *Location will be chosen by Hawaiian Paddle Sports based on weather/surf conditions.
Why private surfing lessons?
A private surf lesson allows our guides to cater their instruction to your ability, so you have a memorable, authentic surfing experience. Although surfing is something almost everyone can do, we realize people come from different backgrounds and comfort levels in the ocean. Since our surf instructors do not have to manage the fitness levels and expectations of multiple groups, they are able to provide a lesson catered to just one party’s needs. During our private surfing lessons, our instructors give you their full attention, and show you how to surf (not just stand up), where waves come from, what causes waves to break and how, surfing etiquette, wave selection, and proper technique.
