Maui Vibe Surf Club runs a kids surf camp in Lahaina for children ages 6–12, teaching surfing fundamentals, beach games, and water safety in small groups of up to four. Sessions are led by professional surfer Philippe Chagas; younger children (6–9) are taught privately while older kids can join semi-private or group formats.

★★★★★Rachel DavisPhilippe is ann amazing coach over so many important years—from age 6 through the teen years. So much growth, confidence, and great memories. He made a lasting impact on both our son and daughter—we’re very thankful
★★★★★Kaan JohnsonMy brother and I have been taking advanced lessons with Philippe and it’s been a game changer in our surfing experience. Philippe’s positive and straightforward approach helped us learn how to position ourselves better in the lineup, how to pick out better equipment, and how to dial in better techniques and decision making. I highly recommend taking a class, doesn’t matter if you are a beginner wanting to catch your first wave or an advanced surfer wanting to sharpen your existing skills.
★★★★★Rafael CursinoWe had an amazing experience with Maui Vibe Surf Club! My niece went surfing for the very first time and had so much fun—she was catching waves right from the start. Philipe was incredibly patient, professional, and made her feel comfortable and confident in the water. You can really tell he loves what he does. Highly recommend for anyone looking to learn how to surf in Maui! 🤙🌊
★★★★★Andrea DuerksenPhilippe was a great fit for our 6 and 8-year-olds when they started surf lessons. He’s super knowledgeable and has a natural way with kids. Ours were already comfortable in the water, but he helped them build skills and confidence to paddle out and catch their own waves. We highly recommend Philippe!!
★★★★★Ayumi Takeshita ShoemakerMy 8-year-old son took surfing lessons with Philippe for two days, and it was an incredible experience! After the first day, he came home saying, “Best day ever!!” and on the second day, he didn’t want to leave because he was having such a blast. As a parent, it made me so happy to see how much fun he was having—getting better and better at surfing, spending time with other kids and ocean animals, and playing in the water for hours. I also really appreciated the wonderful videos and photos Philippe shared with us; they perfectly captured his joy and progress out on the waves. We highly recommend Philippe and can’t wait to sign up for the next camp and lessons! Mahalo ;)
