On a typical day at our “office”, you’ll find us in board shorts, slippers, and the optional t-shirt. The only long sleeves you’ll find here belong to our rash guards. We’re experienced. We’re CPR certified. We’re professionals… at serious fun.

Been around the world a few times from Washington DC to Hong Kong. Settled right in the middle at Hawaii in 2004 when I began teaching surfing. Love the outdoors and animals! I love teaching surfing because it is fun, and teaches important life skills while bringing people closer to nature!
Kenzie
Everyday Hero
24 years old. Originally from St.Pete Beach, Fl. I moved to Hawaii 2 years ago and love it. When I’m not working I’m usually hiking or surfing. I like working on the beach because the people are great and the environment is fun. This job has elevated my love for the ocean. Most days I have so much fun it doesn’t feel like work.

Ace
Born in Wasilla, Alaska. I joined my older brother Jaden working as a beach worker in August 2022. I was then taught surf photography through GSH by surf photographer/instructor Josh. Indescribable how amazing it is to capture a photo of someone catching their first wave! I love that I’m capturing long lasting memories that they can look back on! My favorite part of the job is all the sea creatures I get to see while working in the ocean.

Aloha 🌈 I’m Lindsay. I moved to Hawaii from the Midwest 5 years ago and fell in love with surfing. I love working on the beach capturing photos of surfers in action, especially first timers catching their first waves! You always do better than you think you’re going to do (these instructors are amazing) and there’s always waves to catch in Waikīkī

Moved to Honolulu from North Carolina in 1984 and found work on the beach working on a catamaran, eventually transitioning to surf instructor in 2001. The beach has always been my place and I’m very lucky to make my living on one of the most beautiful beaches in the world!

A dedicated stoke enthusiast who thrives on spreading joy through the exhilarating world of surfing. What I love working on the beach is coaching beginners through their first rides or cheering on seasoned surfers as they conquer the waves.
Josh
The Specialist
Live in Kaneohe, worked on the beach for 14 years, got out of the medical field to do this because it makes me happy. Veteran, Medic, Lifeguard, Waterman, Photographer, and Entrepreneur. Surfing is what grounds me. Love sharing it with others or capturing it for others. As long as I'm in the water I'm a happy guy.
