WHAT THE GROUP SURF LESSON INVOLVES
Royal Hawaiian Surf Academy’s group lesson runs two hours with no more than five students to an instructor — a tighter ratio than most shared lessons, which is the main reason to pick it over a cheaper large-group option elsewhere.
HOW IT RUNS
Board, long-sleeve UV rash guard and reef shoes are supplied. The guides teach all levels and are known for patience with nervous beginners. Children under ten are directed to a private session instead, which is a safety policy rather than an upsell.
PRICING
$115 per person for the two-hour group lesson, all equipment included. Verified against FareHarbor, August 2026. Confirm current rates at booking.
