★★★★★MonaMy siblings and I did a private surf lesson with Zack. He was very nice, made sure we all felt confident and comfortable before going out into the water. He coached us through catching a wave and made sure we each got to surf two or more waves. Highly recommend Zack for surfing lesson, he is a great instructor!
★★★★★Adam NoceAmazing day surfing with Zack. The spot we surfed at was incredible and Zack gave awesome instructions. Not to mention he was a super nice guy. I highly recommend. Perfect for group and private lessons. If you are in Maui, definitely check these guys out.
★★★★★FelixZack Howard Surf – perfect for complete beginners and families We were on a family vacation in Maui and were complete beginners, including our 9-year-old child. Zack Howard Surf was absolutely the right choice. We had 2 instructors for 4 surfers, which made a huge difference. The level of personal attention was excellent, instructions were clear, and safety was always a priority. Despite having no prior experience, we were able to ride a lot of waves, which honestly exceeded our expectations. Every question was answered clearly and patiently. The instructors were encouraging, calm, and especially great with kids. You can tell they have a lot of experience teaching beginners and families — and that they genuinely enjoy what they do. Great organization, solid equipment, and a relaxed, professional vibe. One of the highlights of our Maui trip. Highly recommended — we’d do it again in a heartbeat.
★★★★★Kaylynn MedleyWe had such a great experience learning how to surf today with Zack! Highly recommend doing private lessons. He’s great at teaching/communication which made it really easy to learn. We also had the spot to ourselves which was a huge bonus. Mahalo Zack! 🤙🏼
★★★★★Samantha KlutheWe searched for a surf instructor that was affordable for our family of 5. Zack Hayward was perfect! They had a great rate and the instructor Cody was amazing! He was so patient and all the kids caught so many waves! Thanks for the amazing memories.
