Sunset Suzy offers a fun and safe surfing experience on the north east shore of Oahu, perfect for beginners and families. The lessons take place in a small wave cove, sometimes filled with sea turtles, creating a unique and beautiful setting. The business provides all the necessary surfboard gear, and the friendly staff, including Suzy and her dog, are dedicated to making sure everyone has a great time riding warm Hawaiian waves. Many reviews highlight the patience, encouragement, and positive attitude of the instructors, especially Andy, who is praised for his knowledge and ability to boost confidence. Beginners of all ages, including someone trying surfing for the first time at 53, successfully learned to stand and ride waves during their lessons. Families and individuals appreciated the personal attention, fun atmosphere, and safety, with some mentioning that their kids and even grown-ups had a blast. The location is described as beautiful, quiet, and perfect for a memorable day on the beach after the lesson. Overall, Sunset Suzy is highly recommended for anyone wanting to learn how to surf in a friendly, supportive environment. The team’s flexibility and warm hospitality make it an excellent choice for beginners, families, and those seeking a fun Hawaiian adventure.
Suzy was a great instructor for my 3 boys and husbands first experience with surfing. She arranged for us to surf at the North Shore due to having plans already in that area. She and her co-instructor Salva were patient and guiding during the experience.
