I just recently visited Maui with my boyfriend and wanted to take surf lessons every day of my trip. Zach came highly recommended by another surf instructor, so I figured he must be the real deal! I spent three days surfing with Zach and not only is he an awesome, stand up guy--I ended up really progressed my surfing skills. I highly recommend Zach to surfers of all levels--he's an experienced instructor and knows how to help his students progress + catch tons of waves!

This is our second time with Zack Howard Surf coming out to Maui -- both times my kids got up on first try. We love the Ukumehame Beach location. I would not go anywhere else -- after watching the surf instructors at the hotel, being a former surfer, they are not teaching to stand up correctly. Zack's team does it the right way and the reason why people get up on their first try. We had Jason the first time and Tyler the second. Please tip your instructors, these guys do a great job.

Zack was fantastic, and the 90 minute surf lesson was a highlight of our time in Maui. Our 12 year old daughter and 10 year old son popped right up after great instruction on the beach. Zack makes it fun right off the bat and keeps that enthusiasm going! Will schedule again when we return!
