There are a few great places to surf on the Big Island, mostly along the west shore south of Kona. I met a great guy several years ago who is extremely patient and a great teacher. Turns out he was 2 time Pipeline Grandmasters Champ on North Shore of Oahu! His name is Rory Russell.
If you need a good board, he can also get you a great deal on ones he's designed himself. He has also taught celebrities like Bill Murray and has a picture with him standing on Kahalu'u Beach just south of Kona to prove it! He's a GREAT GUY and a good friend.
When trying to decide where to go, you might want to consider the tide (low tide seems to be better for surfing, I'm told) so this link to the Big Island tide tables might be helpful.
