It’s something I’ve been wanting to try for years and Surf Honolulu made that possible. Ridge was a great instructor and took me through all the ‘moves’ on dry land first before we entered the water. Once on the water, the paddling was fun and I didn’t fall off once! And as a plus, got to see a large sea turtle up close. A great experience which I thoroughly recommend 😊👍
Nate was great with communication, and was a great instructor for paddleboard. He was patient, kind, and very helpful with my level/comfort. Definitely recommend.
My fiancee and I had a lot of fun on our 1-hour stand-up paddleboarding lesson. This was our first time trying paddleboarding, and it was a pleasant and easy experience. The part of Ala Moana beach that we were on is a little less crowded, and we had very flat waters with few waves and little wind, making for an easier beginner experience. For reference we had a 10AM time. The instructor was very friendly and accommodating when we arrived late, and he walked us through a few basics on land before moving onto the water. He was there with us the whole time and provided expert guidance and tips, helping us balance and become acclimated to the activity. Lots of fun!
So great to hear feedback such as this... Thank you and we hope to see you back in the near future.
