Chris was the instructor for my two kids. He was very patient and made the learning on the sand portion fun. This was my kids second time surfing and Chris really helped them improve.

My sister and I took surf lessons with Garden Island surf school. I had surfed a little before but I was still very beginner and this was my sisters first time. Ikaika and Alika did an amazing job teaching us both how to surf! We were able to stand up and catch some waves which was amazing since we were only beginners. I would definitely recommend this school for anyone visiting Kauai and I will definitely be back again next time I’m on this island!

This place was awesome! Hannah was super nice and even though I was a total kook she got me up on a few waves. My daughter(happens to share the same name) had a blast. The time after the lesson to use the board and what you learned is a plus. I would totally recommend this place, and will come back next year and bring my son out.

As mentioned before — the first star goes to Heidi(and the Surf School) for being on time and responsive. After being forgotten about by a higher-priced, more well-known local surf school, my husband and I found these guys prepping for another lesson. Heidi offered to take us on, right there, and we both got up by the 2nd try. Amazing words of encouragement, tips for less-than-perfect waves/rides, and overall friendly-natured conversation while waiting in between waves. I can’t have asked for a better experience! Getting to have a go of it(at no additional cost) on our own after the lesson(for as long as we could take) was certainly a plus, too!

Too much wakey-bakey here! I called to find out about lessons for the day after admiring the cute flyer at the airport and the woman who answered the phone was heavy on the annoyed sighs and really light on any information. Gee, I wonder why they don’t have much business…

My boyfriend took lessons with Garden Island in Kauai(despite a lackluster review from a certain blue guidebook) and was thrilled! First star– these guys answer their phone! Second star– waiting on the beach right on time! Third star– Super friendly, patient instruction and great tips for beginners! Fourth Star– Help you catch a wave your first day out and yell encouragement at you from the water! Fifth Star– Let you hang on to your board and rash guard after the lesson and go out on your own for a while. Overall a great experience!
