He’e Nalu Adventures

Founder: Benny Martin

He’e Nalu Adventures came to life in 2019 after many years of hard work. For Benny Martin, owning a business that allows him to share his passion and love for surfing with people from all over the world is not only a dream come true but a privilege he does not take for granted.

His family, originally from Germany, made their way to the islands in the early 90’s. Since then, Benny has become an essential member of the community. Growing up in Lahaina, a small community deeply rooted in culture, was very special to say the least, and it played a huge role in making Benny the person he is today. From an early age he found surfing to be one of his true passions; memories of being dragged off the beach from various surf spots from sun up to sun down were a common occurrence. His affinity for the ocean allowed him to become very comfortable in water while also instilling in him a great understanding of all her unpredictable elements.

Benny is confident in his skill from years of instructing and participating in both amateur and professional surf events. CPR certified and a First Aid Responder, Benny is always ensuring his students are having fun without sacrificing their safety.

In addition to surfing, Benny has a few other things to be thankful for: his beautiful wife Camila, daughter Penelope & son Emilio!
