Great surf lesson — highly recommend!!

Jennifer_S, Dec 2025

This was an amazing surf lesson — highly recommend! It was me and my two kids and the instructor was great with all of us. Helping us paddle out and making sure we got some great waves. My kids LOVED it and are now aspiring surfers. Highly highly recommend!

Response from Host, Jan 2026

Mahalo Jennifer and Ohana and great job learning to surf. Happy to hear everyone loved surfing and hoping to see the kids out there on their own one day ! Thank you for surfing with us at North Shore Oahu Surf School.

Awesome day!

Mike_T, Nov 2025

James was awesome! He worked with my daughter who’s usually timid and had her up and surfing all the way back to the beach. He didn’t rush either of them and they both asked to spend the rest of the days of the trip surfing. Thank you!

Response from Host, Nov 2025

Mahalo guys for trusting us at North Shore Oahu Surf School! Happy to hear the kids had a great time learning to surf with James and see you guys next time. Aloha.

Family fun

Rachel_D, Jun 2025

We had a great time! This was fun for the whole family. All of were able to successfully ride a few waves even though we had never been on a surfboard before. The guys were so patient with us.

Response from Host, Jul 2025

Micah, the surf instructor lifeguard legend

Jacqueline_L, May 2025

Things started very casual and low-key. Micah met us in his own truck and with a couple rash guards. We unloaded the surfboards and immediately started going over the safety and basics. We quickly realized we lucked out with the best surf guide! Everything he said and all of his feedback was so helpful. We caught SO MANY WAVES. And he pushed us into even bigger waves once he trusted we were ready. Micah has been surfing since he was a baby and he is a lifeguard as well. So we felt safe and just so blessed and lucky to have his expertise to guide us and push our technique.
