“Great activity for those looking for something a little different”

My wife and I took a lesson with Maria in late September 2008, on West Maui. The lesson consisted of some limbering warm-ups on the beach, some instruction on the beach and a bunch of on-water instruction and practice. Maria is a good instructor and we had a very good experience with her. She accepts some credit cards.
Maria is adept at working with one’s native skill, or lack thereof, and getting the most of the time on the water. This was our first attempt at stand up paddle surfing and we found it engaging and fun. Maria is charming, talented and impressive. She brought all the equipment to the park where we met her, on West Maui. We came down from Ka’anapali, approximately 20 minutes away. We had the waves to ourselves and consequently had plenty of room to paddle, turn around and catch waves. Her mother took photos of us from the shore and kept tabs on our shoes and towels and car keys while we were on the water.
I would highly recommend Maria if you are interested in trying this sport. I also believe she might be available for surfing lessons, as she is a highly skilled surfer.

Water Time: No visit to the Mecca of surfing is complete without some water time. Even when the surf is pounding, there are some areas that are calm and even glassy for stand up paddling. Take a lesson with Maria Souza Ocean Sports Education in Maui (or make arrangements for a workshop of 2 or 3 days at your location), check with the lifeguards or local surf shops for recommendations on where to paddle out. Make sure you have some experience and knowledge on your side before venturing out in the swells or flat water. Never underestimate the power of moving water whether it is in the form of waves or flat water currents.
