About Ohana Surf Project
Ohana Surf Project is a premier surf school and rental outfitter based at the Waikiki Beach Marriott Resort and Spa on Oahu's iconic south shore. Their team of instructors brings over 150 years of combined surfing experience, offering lessons for beginners through advanced surfers in the warm, consistent waves off Waikiki Beach.
Services include group and private surf lessons, stand-up paddleboard instruction, and a full range of board rentals from soft-top learner boards to high-performance shortboards and SUPs. They also run the Ohana Surf Center on-site, stocked with surfwear, accessories, and everything guests need for a day on the water. Lessons typically run 90 minutes with small instructor-to-student ratios for personalised attention.
What sets Ohana Surf Project apart is their deep roots in Hawaiian surf culture and their commitment to making the ocean accessible to everyone. Their location inside the Marriott means seamless booking for resort guests, while walk-ins from along Kalakaua Avenue are equally welcome. With consistently high ratings and a loyal following, they've become one of Waikiki's most trusted names in surf education.
