Surfboard Rentals in Kihei
Kihei is one of the most popular towns on Maui for island visitors seeking the ultimate Hawaiian vacation experience. With many vacation rentals and hotels in close proximity to the shoreline, Kihei and neighboring Wailea are also great places for learning to surf. Beaches like The Cove are well known for consistent, small waves that offer a less intimidating opportunity to try the sport for the first time. Renting a surfboard is the most affordable and convenient way to start. Boss Frog’s locations in Kihei and Wailea offer soft tops that make learning to surf much more accessible.
Choosing the perfect board depends on your level of experience and current ocean conditions. It is generally recommended for beginners to start on a long board. Once you progress and want to try surfing larger waves, you can switch out for a short board. The staff at Boss Frog’s can help you to find the ideal size board. They can also provide tips on the best waves to practice your pop up, drop into some barrels or simply play around in the whitewash. Whatever size or stage of waves you ride, there is nothing quite like the feeling of surfing in Hawaii.

Should I rent a short board or long board?
The perfect board depends on your skill level, where you plan to surf and the current swell conditions. The easiest boards to learn on are soft tops due to their buoyancy and ease of catching a wave with very little paddling required. While a long board is the best place to start, you may wish to try a short board once you feel more confident. Learn more about the difference between long and short boards on our blog.
