Poipu Surf Lessons

Ask a QuestionReserve Now!!!
Learn to surf at Poipu Beach with instruction from the professionals of Aloha Surf Lessons. After meeting your instructor, the first part of the lesson happens on dry land … you will learn how to position yourself on the board, how to stand up, and the correct posture to adopt while riding the wave. Then it’s just a few steps out to the beach where you’ll paddle out and start your in-water lesson.

The beach at Poipu is a great place to learn with a nice sandy bottom and consistent surf break suitable for beginners. Instructors help you into position to wait for a wave, and give you a little push to assist you in take-off. As you stand up they’ll give further instructions regarding and insights into improving between each wave. It’s fun to watch students learn … from the first awkward attempt at the beginning of the lesson to standing up with confidence by the end of the lesson.
