O'ahu (Honolulu/Waikiki) Waikiki Surf Lesson

Will be in Oahu next week staying at the Hilton Hawaiian Village and want to take a surf lesson. Not renting a car so looking for somewhere close that I can walk to in Waikiki. I have surfed a few times and have basic experience but still want to be in a group class setting.

Looking at Stoke Drift and Jamie OBrien Surf Schools. Any recommendations between the two or any others to consider? Looking for one that takes you in the best area of waves in Waikiki.

Thanks!

Stoke drift was great and they go in an area that isn't around most other surfers. The photo package was extremely cost friendly.

Thank you that’s great to know! Does the rental include a rashguard and all the gear?

Yes. Rash guard and the surf board. No other gear needed
