======================================================================

Our beach front camp facility is the ideal location for a surf camp,
with access to beginning and intermediate summertime surf breaks. We

Here's an excerpt from a news article about the Maui Surfer Girls
camp:
"Girls participating in a Maui Surfer Girls camp are learning that
wave riding can be not only a sport, but also a way of empowering
themselves.
The camp provides them with an understanding of native culture and an
awareness of the ocean and themselves as they move through their
teenage years.
'It's a lot more than just a surf camp. It truly helps the girls
commune with nature and teaches them lessons about life,' camp
director and founder Dustin Tester said.
...Tester said for the two-week camp, the girls stay with her and her
assistants at an A-frame cabin at Olowalu for 12 days and 11 nights.
The price of the camp, including equipment, meals and ground
transportation, ranges from $2,000 to $2,200.
She said the activities also include windsurfing, kite boarding and
cultural events such as learning how to make a Hawaiian bracelet and
being a guest at a luau.
Tester is offering a $75, two-hour lesson for mothers and daughters as
a Mother's Day special.
For more information, contact Tester at 808-250-2019 or e-mail
dustin@mauisurfergirls.com."

Big Island Girl Surf Camp
======================================================================
"Aloha, welcome to Big Island Girl Surf. We offer surf adventures for
women & girls. Our 8-day overnight camps (for 1st time beginners to
intermediate surfers) include accommodations, tasty healthy meals,
yoga/stretch classes, surf lessons, local activities & excursions.
Every camp is unique but here's what some have experienced:
snorkling with dolphins / whale watching
outrigger canoe sailing / fishing
warm ponds / steam vents / waterfalls
hikes through tropical rainforest jungles
lava tubes / visit to the active volcano
Hawaiian crafts / hula / storytelling
watsu / water dance / massage
. . .& lots & lots of surf!
We stay at the Makahiki House (homey B&B style) next to a fun local
break and often tour/sometimes camp the island (depending on where the
waves are & where we feel like exploring). We pick you up from the
airport [ITO] and drop you back off - no worries. Still, this surf
journey is only recommended for the good-to-go adventurous."
