Hawaii Surfing Vacation
|
A luxurious Hawaii surfing vacation creates a memorable moment for newlyweds, families, singles, or retirees. Tourists of all ages will never forget the experience of sand, sea, and surf on the enchanting island of Hawaii. The moment tourists arrive from the mainland, they are drawn to the crystal clear oceans and pristine beaches of Waikiki, Oahu, Big Island, Kauai, or magnificent Maui where vacationers have a chance to hang ten with the pros. Surfing is a must-do for anyone visiting the islands. Learning how to conquer the wind and sea to ride the waves of the South Pacific beneath a sun-drenched sky is a surfer's dream-come-true. Miles of glistening white sand and surf stretching across more than 1500 miles of Polynesian paradise await tourists of every age. Vacationers can book a Hawaii surfing vacation in advance, which may include hotel accommodations and at least one group lesson for the whole family. Honeymooners can reserve a cozy beachfront condo and add private lessons for two along the gorgeous beaches of Oahu's North Shore. Surfing at mid-morning, followed by a private breakfast on the lanai is a perfect start to an exhilarating day on the island of Hawaii.
Families of four can take advantage of a Hawaii surfing vacation offering semi-private lessons for ages 14 and up. Beginners quickly learn how to stand, turn, and maneuver surf boards and the proper techniques for gauging waves, wind, and currents. Mom will rest assured that most instructors are professional lifeguards concerned about teaching the little ones and the not so little ones all about water safety and how to get along with other surfers in and out of the water. Surfing may look difficult, but professional instructors can usually transform even the most uncoordinated landlubber into a water baby, capable of paddling gleefully across the ocean with confidence. In less than two hours, nearly any swimmer can learn how to ride the waves and hang ten like a native Hawaiian!
As part of a Hawaii surfing vacation package, classes on land and sea may include transportation to and from the hotel and surfboards, but the gorgeous scenery is free. Who wouldn't enjoy the freedom of riding the crests of waves in the most inviting natural habitat on earth? A bright blue sky literally glistens as it is reflected off of the ocean, sparkling with jewel tones of emerald and azure. Tropical palms lean ever so slightly, towering above hidden grottos of native vegetation, flora, and fauna. Tourists are transported to a make believe world where the hustle and bustle of the mainland are all but forgotten. Trading in a business suit for a set of island print shorts and goggles is the perfect way to shed the cares of the city and get in the swing of island living. A one or two-hour surfing excursion can jumpstart a weeklong junket visiting Hawaii's finest beaches amidst luxurious tropical resorts. Sometimes, getting away from it all is necessary for the restoration of body, soul and spirit. "Come unto Me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you, and learn of Me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls" (Matthew 11:28-29).
From surf school at Waikiki, Oahu, Maui, or Big Island, avid enthusiasts can test their skills from dawn to dusk amidst the most fabulous ocean vistas this island paradise has to offer. Rent a moped or hop on a scooter from island to island for a weeklong adventure along the pristine shoreline. Each of the eight Hawaiian islands offers a unique experience for beginners to advanced surfers to not only catch some rays at the beach, but also to relax amidst the scenic views of secluded seaside villas of Waikiki and quaint cottages in Kauai. An unforgettable Hawaii surfing vacation begins with advance booking on the mainland from the comfort of a home or office PC. Island tourist sites may offer packages which include airfare, beachfront accommodations, car or moped rentals, and group or private surf lessons. Many surfers prefer staying in rustic beachfront condos along Sunset Beach in Oahu or on Big Island along the Kailua-Kona coast. Pricier accommodations at gated resort communities may include a round of golf, an afternoon dip by the pool, and a relaxing massage in the hotel spa. There are Hawaii surfing vacation packages for nearly every budget for two, four, and more guests.
The best time to book a Hawaii surfing vacation might be during the off seasons when accommodations are plentiful. Oceanfront properties include spacious lofts for six guests and airy lanais, perfect for a luau after an afternoon of surfing and sunbathing. Vacation rental condos and villas include everything but food and a toothbrush. Sun lovers can lease two, three, and four bedroom villas right on the beach, which will accommodate eight to twelve guests. Luxury accommodations usually include maid service, surf boards, and a private lifeguard for a weekend junket or a weeklong getaway. Guests lose all track of time catching the waves and frolicking carefree along the stretches of beach amidst lush palm trees, island flora and native ambiance.
A Hawaii surfing vacation is not just about sand and sea. Tourist packages offer accommodations near designer boutiques and quaint local shops. Vacationers can choose to sample the island fare by frequenting native restaurants far off the beaten path, or enjoy dinner and dancing under the stars at popular night spots. After a long day on the beach, a hot stone massage or spa treatment is perfect for relaxing muscles in preparation for the next day's surf. As the evening draws to a close, surfers can be seen relaxing under a spacious lanai as tropical breezes lull them to sleep, no doubt to dream about riding the next big wave along one of the Hawaii's scenic shores.
