24-Hour Cancellation Policy for Group Surf Lessons

Our group surf lessons are designed to be a highlight of your time in Hawaiʻi. We also know that plans can change unexpectedly. To balance flexibility for you with fairness to our team and other guests we turn away once your spot is reserved, we follow the cancellation guidelines below:

Cancellations Made 24 Hours or More in Advance
If you cancel at least 24 hours before your scheduled lesson time, there is no charge to the card on file and you will receive a full refund.

For example: if your lesson is at 9:00 a.m., you have until 8:59 a.m. (Hawaii time) the day before to cancel and still qualify for a full refund.

Cancellations Within 24 Hours & No-Shows
If you cancel less than 24 hours before your lesson, or if you do not arrive for your scheduled session, the full cost of the lesson (100%) will be charged.

Using the same example, any cancellation made after 8:59 a.m. (Hawaii time) the day before a 9:00 a.m. lesson is considered inside the 24-hour window and is non-refundable.

Rescheduling Within 24 Hours
If you wish to reschedule your lesson within the 24-hour period before your start time, a reschedule fee of US$40 per person will be applied, in addition to the lesson cost already paid. Rescheduling is also subject to availability.

Swimming Ability Requirement
For safety reasons, all participants must be able to swim independently in open ocean conditions without assistance. Smaller-framed guests and children must also be able to manage and control their surfboard with minimal help.

If, at check-in or during the lesson, it is determined that a guest cannot safely swim or handle themselves in the ocean, we may need to refuse the lesson. In this situation, the booking will be treated as a same-day cancellation and all payments made will be forfeited.
