Bodyboarding in Waikiki

Bodyboarding, also known as "boogieboarding", is a water sport in which the surfer rides a bodyboard on the crest, face, and curl of a wave that is carrying them towards the shore. It's the easiest way to enter the world of wave riding and is pure FUN! We have numerous surf rentals available in our Waikiki shop.

Boadyboarding is the perfect stepping stone to raise your confidence and progress onto surfing lessons, where we will teach you how to stand on your board. Bodyboarding uses a foam board with a hand leash. Bodyboarders can stand in waist-deep water to catch a wave.

Our instructors will teach you the method, techniques and tricks that will allow you to ride the waves like a pro. We focus on teaching all students the three primary forms of riding waves: prone, drop knee, and stand-up.
