WHAT THE LESSON INVOLVES
A beginner windsurfing lesson on wide, stable longboards. Total beginners start here, learning sail handling and how to read the wind. The boards used are Starboard Go and Naish Kailua wide-style boards, chosen because their extra stability makes it possible to be up and sailing in a first lesson.

HOW IT RUNS
Beginner classes are scheduled in the mornings when the wind is lighter, using small sails that are easy to lift. After a short land lesson on wind, terminology and stance, you learn to sail across the water, turn around and sail back to the beach. Classes run Monday to Saturday.

PRICING
$225 per person for the two-hour beginner group class. A private lesson is $325, a three-day kids’ camp $650, and a five-day course $1,100. Verified against FareHarbor, August 2026. Confirm current rates at booking.

Frequently Asked Questions

Usually yes, at a basic level. The school uses wide, stable longboards and light sails specifically so beginners can be up and sailing within their first two-hour session, learning to sail out, turn and return to the beach.

Wind on Maui is lighter in the morning and strengthens through the afternoon. Light wind is far easier to learn in, so beginner classes are scheduled early and stronger-wind sessions are left to more experienced sailors.

From age six. The school stocks small sails sized for young children, and runs a dedicated three-day kids’ camp alongside the standard classes.

It is different rather than harder. Windsurfing demands balance and sail handling but does not require paddling out through waves, and beginner sessions take place in flat, sheltered water rather than in the surf.

$225 per person for a two-hour beginner group class. Private lessons are $325, a three-day kids’ camp is $650, and a five-day course is $1,100.
