We had SUCH an amazing time with 808 Surf School!!…read more Andy was the best-- professional, knowledgeable, really attentive, and made us feel safe and comfortable in the water the whole time.

My son (4.5) had surfed before but Tristan got him on the board alone for a couple of waves, and was understanding when his stamina ran out an hour in. My daughter (2.5) was great on land, but hated the waves once in the water, but she was never pressured. I'm an experienced surfer but only get out about once a year so Tristan was able to help me get that muscle memory back, and was patient when I took breaks to check on my kids (and husband! They weren't alone). Even my husband who vowed never to surf again said he'll try it next time with these guys! Would definitely recommend for anyone learning to surf on the north shore!

Worth every penny!!!…read more First time to the North Shore and wanted to try surfing. I decided to book with Shaydo because he's a professional surfer, CPR trained and trusted waterman....I definitely made the right choice!!! From the moment I met him, I felt comfortable and relaxed. He was very patient and thorough before we even got in the water. Once we were in the water, Shaydo got me up on my board and I WAS SURFING!!! Needless to say, the time in the water flew by and I had so much fun. I would definitely book a class with Shaydo again. It was such an authentic experience, plus how many people can say they learned to surf with a professional surfer!
