Best experience while in Hawaii

We loved this experience. We had plenty of instructors for our family of seven and got great pictures. My four-year-old was on a surfboard with Carol the entire time and had a blast. All the rest of us surfed on our own boards. One of my children summed it up by saying it was like being with friends on the ocean and not surf instructors. Every single one of us got up on a wave.

Great Surf Lessons and an Amazing Family Experience

We had such a great time with North Shore Surf Girls. Carol and Lilly were fantastic instructors and made the whole experience fun and easy for our family. They gave clear instructions on land, stayed right there with us in the water, and made sure everyone felt safe and confident. The lessons were paced perfectly – enough time to learn the basics but plenty of time in the water. I was able to stand up and ride my very first wave, something I didn’t think I’d do on day one. Watching everyone in our family catch waves and cheer each other on made it even better. It was a highlight of our trip and something we’ll all remember. If you’re looking for surf lessons on the North Shore, I highly recommend them.

Awesome surf experience for beginners!

My family of 4 went surfing with North Shore surf girls today and had an absolutely fantastic time! Our surf instructors, Brendan and Mikayla (sp?) we're so personable and helpful, and we learned so much from them. All 4 of us were able to stand up on the board and caught some good waves even on a day with small surf. Highly recommend! Great memories made, and I can check this off my bucket list. Hope to be back someday.

Just the best!

We had an amazing surf lesson with Jasmin. She was kind, super skilled, and seamlessly adjusted her instruction and approach as the lesson unfolded. It was also fun to have Hank the photographer along too. He was kind of the water, unobtrusive, but also captured some great shots at a reasonable price. I would definitely recommend North Shore Surf Girls!

Wonderful!

We had an amazing experience. We saw a lot of turtles and it was a wonderful time. They even had a chair for my mother who rather watched :) Without a doubt the best surfing lesson I ever had!

Awesome lessons in an incredible spot. Thank You Aimee! Aimee!

Aimee is so good we returned a second time on vacation. Our daughters abilities became that much stronger in just two lessons. We will be back! Aimee is so patient and fun!

Fun for me and my adult kids!

So much fun! Had my 16 year old son, two young adult daughters, and my 20 something son and his wife. We all got up! I’m over 50 and got up on the first wave. I chose North Shore Surf Girls because I wanted it to be low key and it was. Highly recommend!

1st time on the Big waves of Hawaii’

Treated my daughters (28yo,25yo) to a semi private lesson with Northshore Surf Girls. It was a wonderful first time experience for both of them. Weather was a bit windy, surf a bit rough but they rocked it. Emma? their instructor (Sorry I only heard her name once) was attentive to each of the girls as they alternated instruction and catching waves. The location of the day was easy to find, easy to park and a pleasant location to watch from. It was also fun to watch some of the locals surfing! Professional photos at the end was a nice surprise and much better than the ones I took on my iPhone. My girls felt safe, received good feedback on their progress, worked hard and had fun. Would definitely recommend them.

Lilia was amazing!

Lilia was the best person to go with! My friend and I went with two different skill levels and she adapted to us both. This sport can be intimidating, but she made us feel comfortable and pushed us to enjoy the experience and ride as many waves as possible! She definitely deserves a raise!
