Surfing Lessons

Catch a wave as your hang ten with the “Sport of Kings.”

What better place to learn this ancient sport than in the place it was invented? A lesson at one of Maui's surf schools will provide you with surfing basics, from paddling out and popping-up to reading the waves and spotting incoming sets.

Professional instructors welcome all aspiring surfers and adapt their teaching style to the ability of each student. Surf lessons typically include reef shoes, a long-sleeve rash guard and surfboard. As an experienced surfer, I love surfing Ka‘anapali Point and know I can get help when I need it from the lessons offered seven days a week. For beginners, a good tip to remember is that the earlier in the day you go, the easier it is (since the water is calmer in the morning). And sunscreen is a must. It’s easy to forget once you’re in the water, so put it on early.

We can help you book private, semi-private, or group surf lessons. But don’t wait. I love the fact that we offer board rentals at the resort, so you don't have to worry about bringing one or storing it. This is a popular activity and spots fill fast.

Zip Line Adventure

Glide high above the ground for a must-do exhilarating experience.

Fun and exhilarating, zip lining is an adventure you won’t want to miss when you visit Maui. I recommend this activity as a fun way to take in the beauty of the island and get your adrenaline pumping. You’ll soar high above lush Hawaiian valleys, eucalyptus forests, green pangola grass pastures, breathtaking seascapes, and jungle-covered hills all while catching a glimpse of colorful birds and other indigenous wildlife.

Morning time is ideal to go before the temperatures rise, and wildlife is likely to be more active. Minimal hiking is involved, so comfortable shoes (no flip-flops or unfastened shoes) are necessary.

All ages and skill levels are welcome. There are several options to try, so call us for details and to book.

Hiking

Set off on foot to explore Maui’s stunningly beautiful, diverse terrain.

Immerse yourself in the lush landscape of our beautiful island with a scenic hike along the rugged coastal exterior or the lush rain forest interior. One of the best routes is along the Hāna Highway, where you’ll see Haleakalā volcano, towering bamboo and rain forests.

Hiking pamplets can be found at our Concierge Desk if you want to explore alone. To get the best experience, though, go with a guide, who will make sure you are learning while visiting spots only accessible with a guide. The Kapalua Trails, located just 6 miles from the resort, are some of my favorites with options for every skill and fitness level. Each time I go with a guide I'm able to access areas not available to the general public, making a spectacular experience even better.

We can help make sure you find the perfect hiking path and guide based on your experience and comfort level. Contact us ahead of time so we can book this unforgettable experience for your group.

Bike Down a Volcano

The ultimate ride features a heart-thumping descent down a famous crater.

Nothing can prepare you for the feelings you will experience on the summit of the Haleakalā volcano. The trip down is equally thrilling. Your journey begins with a panoramic sunrise view of Haleakalā Crater in Haleakalā National Park. Visually stunning, the summit area is enormous. After sunrise, you’ll coast down from the 6,500-foot elevation through 21 switchbacks. It's a 28-mile downhill ride on paved roads with a mere 400 yards of pedaling.

During your ride, you will see unbelievable views of the islands of Hawai‘i, Molokini, Kahoolawe, Lāna‘i, and the West Maui Mountains. You'll also discover pineapple and sugar cane fields, along with many exotic plants and flowers. You'll arrive at sea level in Paia, the original territorial capital of Hawai‘i.

When dressing for the ride, you’ll want to wear layers. The morning can be very chilly, so bring clothes you can shed as things heat up. Also, don’t forget sunglasses. If you’re going for the sunrise experience, you will be heading out early in the morning while it’s still dark.

Reservations are required for experiencing the sunrise on Haleakalā. We can help arrange your reservation so you don’t miss out on this once-in-a-lifetime activity.
