With its tropical climate and temperatures rarely getting too hot, Kauai, the Garden Isle of Hawaii, has ample opportunity for surfers of any ability, while being a primo spot for surf lessons and schools. While some of Hawaii’s other islands get more attention and have bigger, badder waves and attractions, Kauai has been and always will be predominantly a surfer’s island. Lots of pros were born and stayed here because the surfing was consistently too good to pass up. That’s what makes it so special, while still a huge tourist draw, Kauai is still lesser known than some of the other islands — surfers know this and stay because of it.

Chances are pretty good inclement weather won’t get in the way of your surfing holiday. Remember that as quickly as a storm rolls in, it’ll often roll out. Be sure to ask your provider for more details.
Group sizes are on the smaller side, primarily with a 4:1 guest to guide ratio. Keep in mind that the larger your group, the cheaper the individual cost. Go surfing with friends and family!
