Meet Daniel.
Your surf coach.
“I want you to understand the ocean, feel confident and enjoy surfing long after the camp.”
Daniel has surfed for 30 years, lived in Hawaii for 20 years and coached here for more than a decade. He has guided thousands of students and completed more than 1,000 surf analyses, learning exactly which small corrections create real progress.
He is also a professional O‘ahu tour guide with more than 10 years of experience showing thousands of visitors the island. Daniel shares Hawaii’s history, local food, beaches and places he knows personally, so the adventure feels like exploring Hawaii with a local.
As the founder of HI Surf Camp and author of Surf Foundations, Daniel is there throughout your week for the surfing, the island and every question in between.

Tell me about
your Hawaii dream.
Are you coming mainly to improve your surfing? Or does the mix of waves and island adventures feel perfect? Tell me how long you’re staying, what you want to experience and how you’d like to stay.
If you plan to keep traveling after the camp or visit another island, tell me that too. This is a great way to begin O‘ahu, and I’m happy to share recommendations for the rest of your trip.
I’ll reply personally with my ideas and how I can help.
