# Kauai's Ultimate Semi-Private Surf Lesson

**Guidekin's take:** With at most two students per instructor, this surf lesson includes a board, rash guard and water shoes. Participants need moderate fitness and must swim unaided in open ocean water; children need to control their boards with limited help. 4.81 from 36 reviews at €184 per person for 1h 30m.

In our comparison: #3 of 4 in Surf Lessons, by rating weighted by review volume (table below).

- 2 students per Instructor
- All people will need to be able to swim on their own in open ocean waters without assistance of any kind.
- Smaller stature people and children will need to be able to control the surf board on their own with limited assistance.
- For our younger friends under age of 12 we STRONGLY RECOMMEND choosing this Semi-Private Surf Lesson in Poipu or our Private Surf Lesson so there is more individualized attention from our instructors.
