Overview
What sets this apart is the wave itself. The Wai Kai Wave is an engineered standing wave—a continuous, perfectly shaped break that lets you surf in place with no paddling and no ocean conditions to fight. It's the only experience of its kind in Hawaii.
That means no waiting for the right swell, no crowded lineup, and no unpredictable surf. The wave runs on demand, so your session is consistent, controlled, and built around you.
A member of our experienced wave team stays with you the whole time, so even total beginners get up and riding fast—and everyone is guaranteed to catch a wave.
You're also surfing at one of Oahu's most celebrated destinations: a Top 5 USA TODAY Best New Attraction and Hawaii's Best winner, set on a 52-acre waterfront playground on Oahu's west side. Refuel with ocean views at The Look Out, browse Sessions Lifestyle & Apparel, and soak up the island atmosphere—making this far more than just a surf lesson.
Itinerary
The Wai Kai Wave is the easiest way to start surfing—and one of the most fun ways to level up if you've already got skills.
There's no paddling out and no pop-up to master.
You simply slide into a continuous, perfectly shaped wave and go.
Beginners feel the real stoke of surfing within minutes, while seasoned surfers can carve, pump, and chase the wave's pocket for 45 minutes straight—no waiting on a set, no crowded lineup.
Choose your wave size to match your skill level and how hard you want to push it.
Your session starts with a video orientation and a hands-on demonstration to get you riding, plus ongoing pointers throughout your time on the water.
Each session runs one hour, with 45 minutes on the Wai Kai Wave, and includes a soft-top surfboard, helmet, and instruction.
This is an Open Session—a group format where anyone can book in, with a maximum of 10 surfers per session. • Guests must be a minimum of 10 years old • 90 lbs minimum weight
