Such an amazing experience people were fantastic. Many thanks for Emi, Yuki. And Jeremy and Dakona, so fantastic instructors. Thanks for everything guys. What an awesome day!





What sets this apart is the wave itself. The Wai Kai Wave is an engineered standing wave—a continuous, perfectly shaped break that lets you surf in place with no paddling and no ocean conditions to fight. It's the only experience of its kind in Hawaii. That means no waiting for the right swell, no crowded lineup, and no unpredictable surf. The wave runs on demand, so your session is consistent, controlled, and built around you. A member of our experienced wave team stays with you the whole time, so even total beginners get up and riding fast—and everyone is guaranteed to catch a wave. You're also surfing at one of Oahu's most celebrated destinations: a Top 5 USA TODAY Best New Attraction and Hawaii's Best winner, set on a 52-acre waterfront playground on Oahu's west side. Refuel with ocean views at The LookOut, browse Sessions Lifestyle & Apparel, and soak up the island atmosphere—making this far more than just a surf lesson.

Aloha, Thank you for your review regarding your recent experience with Kekoa! We're so happy to hear you enjoyed your time with us! We look forward to hosting you and your Ohana again! Until then, stay stoked! Mahalo, The LineUp at Wai Kai
The surfing wave was a blast to try out, there were some very high performers there doing amazing tricks, I was able to get the hang of it my first time and found it pretty addictive and a great way to improve my surfing and dial in equipment. Behind the surf wave is an epic family water park of sorts that my kids would absolutely love. We ate at the restaurant after our surf and food was great, good value for everything also. Highly recommend and will return.
Aloha! We’re so happy to hear you enjoyed your experience with us! Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We look forward to hosting you and your Ohana soon! Mahalo, The LineUp Team
My first time surfing in a wave pool. Even though I’ve been surfing for many years, it was nothing like surfing in the ocean. Luckily, I had excellent help from the staff to guide me and give me tips. I fell a lot but I had such a great time! I’m coming back for the Wahine Wednesdays!
Aloha! We're so happy to hear you enjoyed your time with us on the Wai Kai Wave and that that our staff provided top notch service! We look forward to having you again for Wahine Wednesday! Mahalo, The LineUp Team
This is a fantastic experience that everybody should try. The new facility is amazing and the staff are all extremely friendly and helpful. We are so glad that we spent the day surfing and spending time on the lagoon. The food was excellent as well and priced well. Hope to be back there very soon. Thx LineUp for the great experience!
Aloha! We're so happy to hear you enjoyed your time with us on the Wai Kai Wave & Lagoon! We look forward to hosting you again at The LineUp! Mahalo, The LineUp Team
The LineUp at Wai Kai is STOKE CENTRAL! Best place to hang with the homies in West Oahu! Surf, Play Shop & Dine - Enough Said! Especially when the waves are flat! The LineUp is a one stop shop to experience the waterman lifestyle which Hawaii is know for - plus cold beverages and good grub! Not to mention, the property is dog friendly, has live music, provides opportunity for night surfing and host other special events on the regular! Don't miss out on all the action on and off the wave; make your way out the Ewa Beach in West Oahu at drop in at The Lineup! Stay stoked!

The wave is an awesome experience - it's a deep-water standing wave so you ride a real surfboard. It's a bit tricky at first and takes a few waves to get dialled in but once you figure out the power zone of the wave it's non-stop fun! You can ride wave after wave for 30-seconds + and you make so many turns your legs burn and your cardio lights up! No paddling and total maximization of ride time and working on hard carving turns and a lot of the rippers are boosting airs (not me). Fun to ride a smaller board too as you don't have to worry about volume to catch a wave (they have a lot of great high-performance boards to rent). It's nothing like the flowrider - totally different and you really can improve your surfing quickly!!! Multi-session packages are the best deal and you will want to do more than one for sure! Super cool to see kids, beginners and saw a few pro's all there during the days we surfed it. Food is great and there's a huge lagoon for the family to paddle on too.
Aloha! Thank you for leaving us an amazing review of your time at The LineUp! We're happy to hear you enjoyed shredding on the Wai Kai Wave. We look forward to hosting you again in the future. Mahalo, The LineUp Team
