Wild Adventure! Connect with the islands like nothing else.
This was such an adventure. It was so different any of the other activities we did on our trip like zip lines or snorkeling but the uniqueness is what made it so memorable and makes it stand out as my favorite part of the vacation. You really feel connected to the Hawaiian islands and can imagine what it would be like trying to live as survive there in the tropical jungle with all the natural resources. I took my girlfriend (33F) and her two sons (16M and 13M). They were a little skeptical about spending 4 hours on this but ended up having a total blast and I was a hero for having set this adventure up.
Amazing experience!
Being outdoors is one of the greatest gifts of living in Hawaiʻi, and this class helped me appreciate the land on an entirely new level. Hawaii Survival School offers a powerful, hands-on experience that blends traditional island living skills with modern survival knowledge.
From building fire and shelter to working with coconut, hibiscus, and breadfruit, every part of the day felt intentional and deeply respectful of the ʻāina.
Lafai is a top-notch instructor! He is extremely knowledgeable, patient, and genuinely fun to learn from. I highly recommend this class to anyone who wants to learn real survival skills, connect more deeply with the land, and feel more confident and prepared while adventuring on the island.
