The Smith Brothers

Surfers In Residence
Waikiki Beach is an iconic destination for several reasons: the view of Diamond Head. The mai tai cocktails. And of course, the surf. Surf culture is at the core of what makes Waikiki Beach so special. Our Surfers In Residence program features professional surfers and their families who "talk story" with guests, led by our host Tammy Moniz, and ultimately head out for a surf session. Experienced surfers with their own boards are welcome to join for a complimentary surf session, no RSVP necessary. For those less experienced, lessons and boards are available at Faith Surf School at Outrigger Waikiki.
