WHAT THE PRIVATE SURF LESSON AT KALAMA PARK, MAUI INVOLVES
Waves Hawaii run this as a straight one-to-one: a single surfer, a single instructor, two hours. They describe themselves as the smallest and most exclusive surf school in Kihei, and the private lesson is where that shows most clearly.
HOW IT RUNS
Meet at the Waves Hawaii truck at Kalama Park, across from the Aloha gas station, five minutes before your slot with the waiver signed. The lesson opens with a proper ocean safety briefing and a land lesson, then moves into the water for the balance of the two hours. Board, reef shoes and rash guard are supplied.
PRICING
