Kauai and Surfing are inseparable to many people.

Surfing was a sport of the ancient Hawaiians and is even more popular in Kauai today. Kauai’s abundant coastline offers big waves for surfing veterans and surfing spots suitable for beginners.

A surfing company may boast that anyone can be riding the surf in just one lesson and that, indeed, was the case when my son Jake tried surfing the first time. This, however, was not my experience. I had a great time, but I was still "surf-wave illiterate" after my first attempt. Just recently on a visit to Kauai however, I gave surfing another attempt and indeed I was able to stand up three or four times during my two-hour surf lesson.

Kauai has a surfing company that suits your experience-level, some of which have instructors who have been on the professional surfing tour circuit.

Kauai Windsurfing is probably the fastest growing of all the "action sports" in Kauai.

The constant and consistent "trade winds" and the total availability to ocean in every direction make windsurfing and its newest cousin "kiteboarding" an absolute natural for Kauai, Hawaii.

Kauai Surfing Lessons - Surfing, known as the sport of Kings, actually was born over 3000 years ago in Western Polynesia by fisherman who discovered the art of catching waves on driftwood allowing them to travel with there “catch” on the fast track to the beach. At some point the Polynesians began simply riding the waves for the pleasure of it and surfing, in its rudimentary form, came into being.

It is estimated that the Hawaiians practiced the art of surfing for a few hundred years after their arrival from the south seas and somewhere in or before the 1700’s expanded the skill level of the sport to include standing on the board. By this time the art of wave riding had totally permeated the Hawaiian culture and the Hawaiian royalty or Alii made it a sport of their own. Many of the best surf spots were reserved exclusively for this social class and regular Hawaiians were excluded from participating. Surfboard making took on a sacred or spiritual evolution and only special trees were picked to make the boards. From these Polynesian roots the sport of surfing has evolved to be the quintessential Hawaiian activity.
