Cesar's Go Nuts camp is not just about learning how to surf, it about getting to experience an authentic North Shore lifestyle. This was my first time surfing and traveling to Hawaii and I was a bit nervous about booking thought this site, however Cesar's hospitality and communication thought WhatsApp not only was attentive but also authentic. With Go Nuts you are a part of a community and you can feel it. If you are interested in healthy food, good coffee, incredible people and ocean views this camp is for you. Now that I'm back in San Francisco, I feel like I have a new Brazilian uncle who I can go back to and learn from.

Cesar was the most warm hearted hospitable host i have met. I was greeted with open arms by his beautiful family. The surf camp was great as well, i had a lot of fun while there. I couldnt rent a car, so cesar showed me the island from his perspective. by the end of the camp, my surfing skills had improved dramatically. It was one of my best experiences

The trip was super amazing! I feel like I was treated like a princess. It is my first time traveling by myself and I feel sooo grateful to stay with Cesar (the host)'s family during the Thanksgiving holiday!

I have a surf lesson every day. I tried a few instructors until I find the best one. Please ask for anything you want. Cesar will try their best to satisfy your requests. I was improving every day on surfing and was feeling accomplishment. LOVE IT!!!

Cesar and his wife - Katia always served me absolutely delicious, authentic, local food like the best poke and shrimp in town. I got a chance to try some Brazilian food as well since the host is from Brazil and has been in North Shore for more than 30 years. We had a big Thanksgiving dinner with the local Brazil community which makes the best Thanksgiving for me as a Chinese who doesn't celebrate Thanksgiving.

They also brought me to explore the island and checked out some signature trails and spots.

Highly recommend!!! Go apply NOW!!!

I went to GoNuts to take some surf lessons and experience Hawaii's north shore. I got that and along the way I made some friends as well. I felt like I was visiting family. GoNuts is across the street from Velzyland and just north of Pipeline. I recommend it. - Dave

Perfect place to learn surfing and to explore the north shore. Great teachers and hospitality, feels like a second home while you're there and Cesar's food is superb! It's a bit pricey for a budget traveller but worth every dollar. Would definitely recommend and hope to be back soon.

The location of the camp was in the prime spot of the North Shore. I was able to walk to one of the surf competitions going on. The beach was across the street, and so was one of the good surf spots.

Cesar and Fabio are great guys. They improved my surfing skills everyday and knew exactly what they were doing. Everyday they were smiling and helping with whatever I needed. You could just see the passion for surfing, the island and their job. Very much appreciate the time I was spending at the surf camp.
