There are many health benefits from learning to surf. The first benefit from learning to surf is increased fitness. Surfing is a very physical sport and you will get more healthy the longer you do it. The second benefit of learning to surf is a increased feeling of calm and peace. Surfing can also be a very spiritual experience with the ocean being the Church of the Open Sky for some people.
Surf school daz starts with waking up before the sun and setting up our North Shore Surf Girl company tent at the beach. Next we go to our favorite coffee shop in Haleiwa for our morning coffee. Then it’s back to the home office to organize the day.
Haleiwa surf lessons are the best because Haleiwa is the surfing capital of the world. Your surf instructors are world class and have grown up surfing daily in the best waves in the world.
The top 4 things to do on the North Shore of Oahu include:
Surfing lessons at Puaena Point
2. Paddle boarding up the Anahulu River safe with no waves or currents ( we offer both rentals and lessons daily)
3. Visit Waimea Falls Park, it host one of the top 8 botanical collections in the world. ( admission is $15 per person and it closes at 4:00 PM)
4. Drive out to Kaena Point, it’s about a 15 minute drive from Haleiwa and there’s tons of empty beaches, no traffic and it’s beautiful. (Warning! There are no lifeguards and the water can be treacherous)
Congratulations to Professional Surfer Jamie OBrian for Winning the Backdoor Shootout
We are so proud of Jamie O’brien for winning this year’s Backdoor Shootout Surfing Contest on Oahu’s North Shore. Jamie’s an original North Shore surfer who grew up on the beach at Pipeline. He’s not a typical contest surfer in that he only competes at the Banzai Pipeline.
Is it OK to take a surfing lesson in the rain? Yes, of course you can learn to surf in the rain as you will be getting wet anyway. We have a tent for you check in and to store your beach towel etc….

The North Shore Surf Contest Calendar is perhaps the biggest secret on the North Shore surf scene. I’m not really sure why but the actual dates of surfing contest are not usually released until the month of October of the same year. This is because the City and County of Honolulu only issues permits a couple of months prior to the actual event date. Not going to comment on the benefits of doing this….
Being a surf girl requires a lot more up keep then the bohemian beach lifestyle title implies. A proper diet is paramount to have the energy to teach surfing for hours each day while balancing the rest of one’s life. Raw organic foods are the key to success. We like to start our mornings with a raw green smoothie full of berries, bananas, leafy greens, papaya and other seasonal fruit freshly available from our local farmers markets. Drink a glass or two of these smoothies and you too will be able to spend hours and hours happily froliking in the surf everyday.
