Overview
Here at Ohana Surf Project we believe our clients are like family, and we strive to provide the best service to every person who chooses to join us on the water and we welcome their loved ones who come along to support them as well. We are passionate about surfing and specialize in three ways of teaching you how to glide across the water: surf, stand up paddle and bodyboard. All of our staff members have been in the business for many years and are some of the finest instructors in the industry. We love what we do and we enjoy working together, as a team and as ohana to make our students feel safe, comfortable, and successful.
Our biggest priority is SAFETY! All our coaches and guides are professional, trained in safety (CPR, lifeguard, first aid), and friendly.
We look forward to welcoming you into our ohana and showing you the aloha spirit that has kept each of us here in Hawaii-- enjoying life & good company, respecting the 'aina (our mother earth), having fun and staying active.

Itinerary
Hop on the Surf School Bus!
Enjoy our complimentary Waikiki shuttle to the Ohana Surf Center at the Waikiki Beach Marriott. Ride in our clean, air-conditioned yellow bus or white shuttle van with our logo. After check-in, gear-up, and a quick safety briefing, we’ll shuttle you to the beach.
Meet your instructor, discuss your experience and comfort level, then head to the ocean with your high-quality board. Once you're ready, we hit the water!
After your lesson, return to the Surf Center to view photos, videos, and shop merch—then we’ll shuttle you back to your drop-off location.
