Reviews of Kauai's North Shore Surfing School (Driving School)

In one word, AMAZING! Ethan is so extremely patience. Very sweet, kind easygoin' person. The waves were very good for beginners like me, and in no time I surfed from Ethan to the beach all by myself!

My bf and I were so fortunate to have found Ethan during our trip to Kauai this December. He was hands down amazing, ridiculously patient, made us feel extremely comfortable, and we both got up on our boards on our very first wave and many more! If you are contemplating learned to surf don't look any further. Ethan is your guy, he makes every minute spend with him totally fun and has a ton of cool surfing stories of his own to share!! He is very knowledgeable about the waters and teaching methods are really intuitive and easy to understand (even for a "Barney" like myself). The days we spent with Ethan were definitely the most memorable and rewarding of our trip, so we will definitely be looking him up again on our next journey to the islands!

Beautiful spot for beginner surfing lessons, with gentle, waist-deep waves that go on forever. My kids loved it!

Scheduled and confirmed a lesson for our daughter and the guy never showed up. We waited for 45 minutes and he quit responding to text messages and didn’t answer phone calls. If you don’t want to do the lesson, just effing say so.

JD is the man and helped my wife and I (both first time surfers) get up and on the board, riding waves. It turns out I am horribly out of shape and experienced "noodle arms", but JD kept it up helping me get as many waves in as possible.
