Description

I’m Heri. I grew up on Oʻahu, where I’ve spent my life surfing, competing, and shaping boards alongside my dad. I started surfing at just four years old, coached by my mom, whose guidance and enthusiasm have shaped my journey ever since. For over ten years, I’ve been coaching surfers, helping others find their rhythm in the ocean.

Discover Oʻahu’s best surf spots with a local guide who ensures you have a safe, fun, and unforgettable experience in the water. Whether you’re new to surfing or just visiting, I’ll help you navigate waves, read the ocean, and surf safely while enjoying each break confidently.

This session is a guided surf experience—equipment is not included, but I can help you find a rental that suits your needs. My goal is to help surfers of any level build rhythm, connection, and confidence so they can fully enjoy every moment in the water.

    My name is Hericles Ribeiro, and surfing has been at the center of my life since I was a kid. I grew up on Oahu and went on to compete professionally before turning my passion into teaching. With over 10 years of experience coaching surfers of all levels—from first-timers to advanced athletes—I’ve built a teaching style that’s all about safety, progression, and confidence in the water. I’m CPR/AED certified, water safety certified, and lifeguard trained, so every session is run with professionalism and care. Whether it’s your very first wave or refining advanced maneuvers, my focus is on helping you grow as a surfer while keeping the vibe fun and local chill. Surfing changed my life, and now I get to pass that on through HERIBOYY Surf Coach LLC—where every lesson is more than just surfing, it’s about building ocean awareness, confidence, and unforgettable experiences
