Surfing Goat Dairy produces more than twenty different cheeses ranging from cream cheeses like "Udderly Delicious" a plain salted Chevre to more exotic varieties like "Mandalay" (apple bananas and curry), "Pirate's Desire" (anchovies and capers), or "Maui's Secret" with fresh Maui pineapple. The Dairy also produces several soft-cheeses, including soft-cheese ripened under wax, in olive oil with garlic, or coated with mesquite ash, along with brine ripened feta cheese.

They also produce soaps made from goat milk. All of their products are available at the dairy or online for shipment.

You can also find these cheeses at numerous retail centers on Maui. Their products are also offered at many of Maui's finest restaurants.

As you leave the dairy and head back to West Maui or the Kihei/Wailea area, you should feel content and proud that you have seen an area of Maui that most visitors never venture to go. If you're like me, you'll appreciate having a day away from the crowded resort area, in a part of Maui where the pace of life is slower, the weather cooler and where the beauty of the Valley Isle is everywhere to be seen.
