Instructor, surfboard, photos
Take a private, one-on-one surf lesson designed to help you get comfortable in the ocean and progress at your pace. You’ll meet at Ukumehame Beach (1000 Peaks) between Kihei and Lahaina for 1.5 hours of focused instruction.
Adults and children should know how to swim, feel comfortable in the ocean, and be self-motivated to learn. There are no restrooms at the exact meeting location; porta-potties are available at Ukumehame Beach park nearby. Discuss booking for children under 8 years old before confirming
Cancel at least 24 hours before your lesson to avoid being charged the full amount (including taxes and fees). If the operator cancels due to weather, you can reschedule; if you cannot reschedule, you will be refunded in full.
No. You can use this private lesson to get comfortable in the water and build skills at your own pace.
Yes. People of any age can surf, but adults and children should know how to swim, feel comfortable in the ocean, and be self-motivated to learn. Discuss booking for children under 8 years old before confirming.
Bring a towel, water, and reef safe sunscreen. Wear a long sleeve rash guard (or use the one provided). If you wear a swimsuit, athletic leggings are recommended to help protect your thighs from rashes.

Enzo has built something special here with consistently glowing feedback from families and first-time surfers. His teaching style strikes that perfect balance of being professional and safety-conscious while keeping things relaxed and fun. People repeatedly mention how quickly he gets complete beginners up and riding waves, often within their first lesson. The uncrowded location he chooses makes nervous newbies feel more comfortable, and his knowledge of wave patterns and reef safety clearly puts parents at ease. What really sets this experience apart are the thoughtful extras. Enzo provides quality gear, captures GoPro footage from the surfboards at no additional charge, and often shares local recommendations for the rest of your trip. Reviewers appreciate supporting his small, locally-rooted business and mention his genuine passion for both surfing and ocean preservation. Whether you're bringing a 7-year-old for their first time or you're a 51-year-old looking to finally try it, the feedback suggests Enzo adapts his approach to each person's comfort level and goals.
Enzo was a fantastic instructor and helped get us up and surfing in no time! I had no idea how well we'd end up doing but, with a lot of motivation, we felt confident enough to tackle the surf! And the photo album we got to keep afterwards is a hilarious reminder of us learning a whole new activity. I'd 100% recommend spending time on the waves with Enzo and Swell, and I hope to one day go back and learn some more!
