What Our Guests Say

Testimonials

“Eddie was an amazing surf instructor. My nephews and I all stood up on our first waves! He was kind, funny, and even towed me out to see a turtle. Such a fun and memorable experience.”

Paula P

“Paddleboarding with John was unforgettable. We saw whales from the shore and ended up just a few yards from a mom and baby humpback. Magical! Our surf lesson with Jill was just as great — patient, fun, and effective. A perfect Maui day.”

Jennifer Sineway

“Michael helped me earn my Open Water certification, and I couldn’t have asked for a better instructor. Calm, patient, and supportive — he helped me overcome my fear of deep water completely. Highly recommend!”
