Surf Smart

Hilo’s breaks are real waves. Most have rocky entries and strong currents. Know what you are paddling into.

  • Ask us first. We will tell you which breaks match your level and the day’s swell.
  • Watch before you go out. Spend a few minutes reading the sets, the current, and where people get in and out.
  • Respect the lineup. Locals surf here every day. Wait your turn and do not drop in.
  • Never surf alone. Bring a buddy and keep each other in sight.
  • Give honu space. Stay at least 10 feet away and never touch them.

FAQs

What is a soft top?

A surfboard with a soft foam deck. It floats well, catches waves easily, and is much kinder if it hits you. The best board for learning.

Surfboard or boogie board?

On a boogie board you ride lying down. It is easier to start and a lot of fun in shore break. A surfboard is for standing up and riding the wave.

Where should I surf?

It depends on the swell. Ask our staff when you pick up and we will point you to a break that fits your level.

When can I pick up?

Any time during shop hours. Online booking may show 9:00 AM, but that is just a default.

What if I damage it?

We inspect every board before and after. You are responsible for damage, and repair or replacement costs may be charged.
