Wholley Guacamole. What a wonderful lil shop. If you're here, they've got everything you need and the expert customer support to get you what you're trying to find. I needed a sexy new pair of flip flops, needed a super specific and unavailable on the wall shoe, and I tell ya what.... They got this thing faster than you can say flip-flop! Everything you need at the price and value you won't find better elsewhere. Then they did the same for my good (beautiful) friend, Jun(as seen in pic 2). Saruh provided an experience I'll always remember and look forward to coming back to. Give this woman, Sara, a raise, delivering 10/10, designer level customer service in a classic retail setting. Wowowow, best employee you've got. read more

In my quest to find surf fins this weekend I came here last on the way home. Of all the places I went today, they had the most choices , sizes and brands. I m looking for Churchill Makapu fins or the dolphin cut shape in another brand. So while I liked the looks of what they had, the fit wasn't there. So I m still looking, trying to buy local. read more

I just finished a 2-hr. private lesson with Hi-Tech's Kakoa (this isn't the best pic of me, but Kakoa's in the background smiling away - priceless!). I've taken a few lessons from other surf shops, and bobbed around a bit on my own, but never left feeling like I had done much of anything. Today was an absolute blast. Perfect location and the perfect instructor. Kakoa kept it simple and was very encouraging. I'll think of him every time I go out and will remember this day forever. Mahalo Kakoa! read more

Big shout out to Pete! He helped me out with a new fin I bought for my longboard. Gave a me a tutorial on how to sand down the fin to fit it in the Jimmy Lewis fin box and found a better screw plate to make the fin more secure. Thanks Pete! read more

Walked down to the shop for a $3 wax comb and left spending $200 on fins too. I was helped by Pete who had great energy and was very informative about the fin selection. I was happy to spend my money when I knew what I was getting. Thanks again Pete! Aloha read more

Big shout out to Ellis that helped me find a Go Pro case. I had a hero 7 model and I don't think Go Pro makes those cases anymore. He not only let me open it to see if it fit but jimmy rigged a set up so I could still use the outside button! Very impressed. Above and beyond costumer service. Got a customer for life. Thanks Hi-Tech! read more

Andrew and the staff at Hi-Tech surf are amazing ! Anyone wanting to learn how to surf must get lessons here ! Andrew will have hanging ten in no time !! O read more

They have a great selection of surf gear. Although, the staff there seem to judge people. Didn't feel the aloha from them today.

I am not usually picky about surf and skate shop workers but it wasn't as good of an experience than other places I bought a Volcom hat and the thing is amazing I never wear hats but this one just looks good on me Please say welcome and thank you for coming in i don't know if it was a bad day or anything but thanks for the nice hat Sincerely Jack read more

So awesome they have a Kihei store! Friendly and very knowledgeable team! Plenty of selection such as longboard surfboards and classic fun shapes. You can find just about anything you need for the water here! read more

Hi-Tech Surf Sports - They even have rentals as well as boards for sale! - Skate Shops Near Me - Kihei, Hawaii

This location in Kihei is great, the other one in Kahului not so much. They are dismissive and act like you are inconveniencing them by your presence. Have been here many times while on vacation, no one speaks to you. Kihei location was sincerely friendly, great customer service. Nice selection of brands. We come to Maui every year, will only shop at this store from now on! Thanks read more

Conveniently located to buy surf gear. Also a great spot if you're making a stop at the cove to try your hand for some surfing. Friendly employees, and plenty of things to choose from. read more

Finally, a real surf shop in Kihei! It might be hard to believe but this is the only place in South Maui to buy surf boards. Nice selection of surf clothing and gear too. read more

See all

Awesome staff and the best place to rent a board if you're visiting Hawaii. The Jimmy Lewis I rented was a blast to ride!!!

Love going to this shop. Excellent selection and great customer service. Peter, the manager, was especially awesome because he took the time to explain everything I needed. Great spot in Kihei. Love the ladies clothes selection as well. I will be back every time I visit Maui, which is quite often! read more

Rented a stand up from Kihei a couple weeks ago because I had nothing better to do on my day off. The Central American girl at the desk was cool but the little local punk that helped me grab a board who probably weighed 105 dripping wet with the wiry black hair needs some lessons in Aloha. I swear I wanted to just stretch this kid! Other than that, the waves were good fun at Kalama bowls. read more

Just about everything you need for your favorite board sports. Knowledgeable friendly staff will help out when needed , give you space when you need it ! I took off a star for the selection of sizes available on my last two visits ( for women's swimwear ) I'm beyond bikinis and need a suit for active sports but the selection there was slim to none read more

Great experience today! Awesome selection on clothing, sunglasses and boards. Harrison went out of his way to help familiarize myself and girl with the islands surf and snorkeling spots. Extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Will be coming back here! read more

I bought a top for my girlfriend, realized I bought the wrong size. Went back 2 days later to exchange the size, but I couldn't find my receipt. All the tags were on the top, nothing was removed I just wanted a different size. Explained to Peter, the manager, my situation, was informed, no receipt no exchanges. I understand the policy, it seemed unfair to me. Keep your receipt, Peter goes by the book, no grace at all. read more

Douches​. No Aloha​. Gave me shit for having a vent plug on my board. Sold me cheap center fin hardware. Had a great experience years ago renting from the adjacent shop. read more

These Bruddahs here at da shop always treat you da kine and help you out as much as possible much Aloha to you guys Shaka ... Marcus the surf coach read more

Store looked cool but DO NOT buy any electronics, electronic accessories, watches or anything that could malfunction. Their customer support will be to direct you to the manufacturer or just say it's "too bad" since they have a STRICT NO RETURN policy. I was able to see this when I first walked in while they were dealing with a customer that had an issue with an item they bought there and then experienced it myself 3 hours later. The manager, Peter sold me on some knock-off GoPro case that came in a box that was sealed with tape and drawn on with a red marker. When I opened it, it already had a scratch on the clip but I was in a pinch and already at the beach so just hoped for the best. The case immediately fogged up and come to find out I didn't even need it unless I was going deeper then 30ft. Peter told me I needed it if I was going deeper then 4 feet of water. Went back to the shop 3 hours later and they would not help. No refund, no exchange, no credit, no customer service. SHOP ELSEWHERE. I could care less about the $35 bucks but it's the point that they have no interest in helping. read more

Love doing business here! Great selection of surf and skim. Friendly and knowledgeable staff.

My wife and I stopped in on our last day in Maui to try to rent a surfboard. I wanted to try surfing before I left, and we'd packed in so many other activities (including our wedding) that we almost didn't have time. The guys at Hi-Tech were super helpful. Even though it was kind of late in the day, they went out of their way to get us set up with surfboards, and even came out with us to show us the basics, and help us catch some waves. We were both able stand up and ride multiple waves, and they stayed past closing to make sure we had enough time. It was definitely one of the highlights of the trip, and now I'm looking to see what surfing spots are within driving distance of me. If we're ever back in Maui we'll definitely be visiting Hi-Tech again. read more

i've always experienced nothing but stellar service chock full of knowledge and aloha and they offer a kamaaina discount, can't beat um

Super nice peps served me, I lovely lady and man who had their adorable little kid with them ( it was Sunday ) I love my new hat and I'll be back for more stuff. Great selection! read more

They go out of there way to help and answer questions. Excellent stock of boards and fins. I had them ship my board to California so I wouldn't have to take it on the plane. They took care of everything. read more

Big fan of Hi Tech, stoked to have a Kihei shop now. First real surf shop in Kihei town, about time!

We bought a GoPro accessory here that was faulty (ended up losing our GoPro in the surf because of it). It wasn't a name brand product, I'm guessing they're bringing them in from China. It was pretty upsetting and at the end of it all, they wouldn't even give us a refund on the broken product we'd purchased earlier that day. Super disappointing service, I wouldn't go back. read more
