What Are “Flow Ohana Surf Days”?

Flow Ohana Surf Days are free, family-centered ocean experiences hosted by Flow Surf Academy throughout the summer months. These special surf days are made possible through the generous support of donors, community partners, and local businesses who believe in sharing the healing power of the ocean.

At Flow, we believe surfing is more than a sport—it’s a gateway to confidence, connection, and joy. Ohana Surf Days are designed to introduce families to the ocean in a welcoming, supportive environment where everyone can experience the magic of catching a wave together.

Participants enjoy multiple surf sessions throughout the day with guidance from Flow’s experienced instructors, many of whom bring decades of experience in surf therapy and adaptive surf programs. Healthy lunches are provided, and the entire day is centered around creating a safe, uplifting ocean experience.

A special part of Ohana Surf Days is the celebration at the end of the day, where participants are recognized for their courage and accomplishments in the water. Each surfer receives a Flow trophy or award, celebrating their effort, bravery, and the waves they conquered. For many families, this moment becomes one of the most memorable parts of the day recognizing that every step into the ocean is an achievement worth celebrating.

The word “Ohana” means family, and we live by that philosophy. Siblings and parents are encouraged to join in the experience, making these days about shared moments, laughter, and building lasting memories in the water.

These events are intentionally designed as community surf days, where families can connect with the ocean, with each other, and with the broader Flow community.
