What surfers are saying
- CCedric Dreyer· a year ago
Absolutely loved our time with Manuia Surf School—especially thanks to our amazing instructor Ken! 🌊🏄♂️ From the very first wave, Ken made us feel confident, safe, and totally hooked on surfing. His passion is contagious, his teaching style is clear and encouraging, and his local tips for exploring Tahiti were spot-on. We came for a lesson, but we left with a new love for the sport. Māuruuru, Ken—you made our trip unforgettable!

Ken was so patient with me and helpful.. I am 45 years old and never surfed and I got on the board and stood up in a 1.5 hr lesson. I’d had low hopes going in but now I can’t wait to surf again! He made me feel like a natural. lol far from it though!

I had an amazing week with Manuia Tahiti Surf School! Ken, the instructor, was not only highly skilled but also very friendly and encouraging. The lessons were well-structured, and I noticed progress from the very first day. The setting is simply paradise, with beautiful beaches and perfect waves for all levels. I highly recommend this school to anyone looking to learn to surf or improve their technique in a welcoming and professional environment. Thank you to Ken and the entire team for this unforgettable experience!
