What to Expect

1. You complete the waiver online and check in 30 minutes early at Guest Services inside the Sessions retail shop, 91-1621 Keoneula Blvd.
2. Orientation starts 15 minutes before your slot and covers the wave, safety rules and how to enter the channel.
3. In the 30-ft channel you can surf, bodyboard or bodysurf, with tandem assistance offered on your first wave; the 65-ft channel is for riders with prior wave experience.
4. Sessions need at least 4 surfers across both channels to run and take up to 10 riders, so wave count per person depends on turnout.
5. After 45 minutes you shower on site; lockers cost $5 for the day.
6. The 100-ft wave format exists on the operator's site but no public price or booking detail was found.
