Here's something you won't find anywhere else in Hawaii – the Dog Surfing Experience - Waikiki transforms your typical surf lesson into an extraordinary adventure with specially trained rescue dogs as your surf buddies. These incredible canines don't just provide companionship; they're part of your learning experience, making every moment on the water more engaging and memorable.
Your 90-minute session begins at 2586 Kalākaua Ave in Honolulu, where you'll meet your four-legged instructors and receive all the surf board equipment you need. What makes this dog surfing experience so special isn't just the novelty – these trained rescue dogs help teach you how to surf, creating a unique bond between you, the waves, and your canine companions.
With a maximum of 2 persons per group, you'll get personalized attention that's impossible with larger surf schools. The intimate setting allows for deeper connections with both your human instructors and the rescue dogs. It's surf training with heart, where learning Hawaii's most iconic sport becomes an act of compassion for these amazing animals.
Come prepared with your swimsuit, personal towel, water, sunscreen, and disposable hat or sunglasses. The weight limit is 200 pounds, and you'll want to arrive at the location prior to the start of your experience. While there are no refunds, rescheduling is always an option if Mother Nature doesn't cooperate.
This dog surfing experience offers more than just surf lessons – it's a chance to connect with rescue animals while mastering the waves in a way that's uniquely Hawaiian and utterly unforgettable.
