Learn to Surf!

Ocean Eco Tours, Kona's first surf school, was created in 1996 and is now responsible for thousands of people learning how to surf. All surf instruction is tailored to you with our ultimate goal of getting you up and riding waves on your very first day. We will teach you about Hawaiian waters and about the sea in general. Lessons are a great way to interact with Mother Nature in her environment. All surf classes are held in mild crystal clear surf and our staff is trained to ensure your surfing experience is safe, fun, and educational. Our classes are small - 8 persons max - giving you plenty of time to catch waves. Private surf lessons are available for the surfer who wants to maximize their in-the-water time.

Surfing: Sport of Hawaiian Kings has been part of Hawaiian culture for thousands of years. What better way to experience the Hawaiian lifestyle than to be able to ride waves? At Ocean Eco Tours, we have taught and turned thousands of wanna-be surfers into real wave-riders since we started the first surf school in the Kona area in 1996.

Our instructors are highly experienced and well rounded watermen and women thoroughly rehearsed in CPR, First Aid, & lifesaving skills.

Our astounding success rate is proof of our "bound and determined" attitude to proper fundamental and hands-on instruction.

We offer 2 sessions everyday, either 8:30 or 11:30 check-in at our shop at Honokohau Marina/Harbo. Here we set up surfers with their gear, booties and rashguards and size them up with an appropriate surfboard. It's then off to the beach for a thorough and comprehensive talk about water safety and the ocean/wave conditions.

The biggest part of a successful surf is wave selection. Our instructor's keen surf experience gets the surfer on the right wave and at the right time for the ride of a lifetime.

Our surf sessions run 2 - 3 hours and we run every day. But don't wait…sign up before the seasonal crunch hits.

Group Surf Lesson: $95
Private Surf Lesson: $150
Semi Private Lesson (up to 4 persons) ( with your own instructor) $125.00 p.p
Multiple (3) Surf Lessons: $270
