The Big Island of Hawaii has many beaches perfect for surfing in Hawaii.
Surfing on the Big Island of Hawaii is a way of life!. Everywhere you go you can see surfers riding the breakers as though they never had a care in the world. Children that grow up here learn how to surf as soon as they learn how to swim and the art of surfing often remains a passion throughout their whole life. Hawaii after all was the birthplace of modern surfing and as such it holds a special place in the minds and hearts of those who live here.
You too can learn how to surf on the Big Island and some of the very best places to learn are along the Kona shoreline which is blessed with an abundance of ride able surf and there are places that have consistently good swells just perfect to learn on. Surf lessons are usually just two hours in length with the first half hour or so spent on the sand doing some dry land maneuvers and learning technique. Next step is the actual ocean itself and you will be amazed how the capable surf instructors will be able to have you up and riding waves often on the first or second attempt. Once you're up, you're hooked. Surfing gets into your blood faster than an I.V. drip and you'll in all likelihood exhaust yourself with the sheer pleasure of the event by the time your lesson is over. Most surfing companies will allow you to rent a board for hours afterward if you have the desire to continue on.
In addition to surfing in the traditional sense on the Big Island of Hawaii, you can also enjoy a stand-up-paddle lesson on a stand-up-paddle board. Stand up paddling is done on a much larger board than you would surf waves on. You actually stand up on these boards and paddle as if you were paddling a kayak but from a standing position. Stand up paddling is usually done in calm water without waves and early mornings are often the very best times. These tours provide you with a great body workout and it is said that they really work your body core. These surfing tours have become so popular in the last couple of years as to become a surfing phenomenon here on the Big Island.
