Big wave surfer Dave Kalama is on a crusade. The legendary Hawaii waterman wants to share his knowledge and expertise—and his love of surfing—with as many people of all ages as possible. For those seeking an unforgettable experience, plan to join Kalama from December 4 to 9, 2011 when Four Seasons Resort Maui at Wailea hosts Maui Surf Camp.

In a destination where surfing is a way of life, campers will have an exclusive opportunity to learn from Kalama, one of Hawaii’s own legendary watermen. Kalama co-developed tow-in surfing with Laird Hamilton, Darrick Doerner and Buzzy Kerbox, giving them - and sport enthusiasts - the ability to catch the largest and fastest ocean waves.

Kalama will lead Four Seasons Resort Maui participants through four days of surfing adventures and beach to ocean workouts determined by weather conditions: wave paddle surfing, canoe surfing, long boarding, windsurfing, and beach training. Whether an intermediate surfer or experienced wave rider, surf campers will build confidence, hone their skills and gain knowledge of the ocean from Kalama, who has spent his life in search of the best – and biggest – waves.

The camp will feature intimate classes to introduce participants to the basics and finer points of “hanging ten” along with enjoying the luxurious accommodations and amenities of the Resort. It's the perfect holiday gift, too - gift certificates are available through the Resort concierge.

This pre-holiday package includes:

• Five nights in luxury accommodations at Four Seasons Resort Maui
• Four days of surfing sessions
• Full breakfast daily in DUO Restaurant
• Daily use of the Surf Camp Hospitality Suite
• Opening night and closing night dinners
• USD 500.00 credit at The Spa at Four Seasons Resort Maui

The Maui Surf Camp is one of many programs that are part of the Resort’s new collection of Unforgettable Events. The calendar of events continues to grow, from the Ashtanga and VinyasaYoga Retreats to Tennis Fantasy Camp and Maui Cycling Camp – all led by top professionals.
