First-time surfers consistently rave about getting up on their boards within their very first lesson, with instructors like Big Todd, Mikey, Yogi, and Kalani earning special praise for their teaching abilities. These instructors don't waste time with lengthy beach sessions – they cover the basics on land, then get you in the water quickly where the real learning happens. Parents love that even young kids succeed here, and nervous beginners appreciate how the patient, encouraging approach builds confidence fast. Beyond the excellent instruction, this spot stands out for flexibility and value. They accommodate last-minute bookings (even hours before closing), and board rentals are remarkably affordable at $15 for two hours. The instructors bring personality to the lessons too, sharing Hawaiian culture and keeping things fun with plenty of laughs. Whether you're booking a group lesson, semi-private session, or just renting equipment, the front desk staff create a welcoming vibe that makes the whole experience feel less touristy and more authentic.
Velina is awesome. I try to take a lesson with her whenever I am in Waikiki. Their prices are very competitive and Yogi is super helpful trying to get you the right size board. They are all very friendly and helpful. Great experience. I highly recommend surfing with Star Beachboys!
