All Gone Surfing Hawaii lessons begin on the sand in Waikīkī, where our instructors cover ocean awareness, wave conditions, and essential surf safety. From there, we get you into the water quickly so you can experience the thrill of wind, waves, and riding your first waves.

Ideal for beginner surfers, first-timers, and families, our lessons are designed to be safe, supportive, and fun. Our licensed instructors are trained in first aid and lifeguard-level CPR, giving you peace of mind throughout your experience.

In the water, you’ll learn how to read waves, position yourself for a smooth takeoff, and understand proper surf etiquette.
