“We were looking for surf lessons for my teenage kids. We looked at the reviews for several schools online, but read a consistent comment from several contributors: Maui Surfer Girls.

We are so glad we went with Maui Surfer Girls. It was easy to book online. The lesson was offered at a location that was not crowded, and offered soft waves, easy for beginners. Kelsey was our instructor, and she was the BEST. My kids had a less than enjoyable surf lesson elsewhere about a year ago, and it was “turn and burn.” Right from the get go, my kids knew this was going to be different. Kelsey took the time to speak with my kids, got to know them a bit, and offered good, basic surf knowledge and safety tips. When it came time to hit the water and catch a few waves, Kelsey was engaged, encouraging, and really made sure that my kids had fun out there. It helped that they caught a few fun ones. 

My wife and I watched from the beach, and commented several times how fun and enjoyable the experience was. If you will be staying in west Maui and interested in surf lessons, look up Maui Surfer Girls. Ask for Kelsey!” – Donald H / June 2022 

We had a great lesson with Lance, he was really friendly and super helpful. He gave lots of tips and we got up on the board almost straight away. By the end of the lesson he had us confidently on waves way bigger than what we expected. We thought about a surf lesson earlier on during our trip when we were staying on Oahu but I’m so glad we waited until we were on Maui to do it with Maui surfer girls. Highly recommend them!

I cannot recommend Maui Surfer Girls enough! I was really nervous about my 11 year old son going out for his first surfing lesson, but seeing how attentive Kelly was with him, eased those fears.  She made sure he was safe, encouraged and supported him, and in the end he had such an awesome experience. Definitely the highlight of his trip! – Chelsea 

“Absolutely wonderful experience with Maui Surfer Girls!! My daughter received a gift card in 2019 but due to pandemic was not able to use it until summer of 2022. They were so nice and honored it. They also went out of their way to help us get a lesson during our visit when they didn’t have any available. Emilia was wonderful!! So patient. My daughter is very unalthletic but she taught her how to surf so quick. It was the best experience. Highly recommend!!” – Emily / July 2022 

Kelsey was a fantastic teacher and was very patient with us as we were both beginners. We had so much fun and felt a huge confidence boost in the water! Definitely one of our highlights. Thanks again!
