Ia Ora na !
We have been working and traveling together for several years: Mamaz was born out of this desire to share with you our passions, travels, and our quirky way to envision life and to make it amazing. So come with us spend a few weeks or a week-end to surf and tame the waves, practice yoga – but without the sore muscles! – meditate and get in touch with your inner self. Come spend some time full of laughter and, we hope, deep conversations. To ensure your safety and your peace of mind during our stays, we both have our first aid certificate (PSE2).

Ecofriendly approach
Both nature-lovers, Marine and Marion have their hearts set on preserving the environment that surrounds them and makes it possible for them to practice their passion. Accordingly, practicing yoga, running, or even meditating in the forest is meeting an ecosystem that is both extraordinary and vital to the Earth’s atmosphere. To surf is to become aware of the essential role that the ocean plays as a major global reserve of biodiversity; it is also the “lung of the planet”; and a stabilizing force of the Earth’s climate. To practice outdoor activities is to be aware that we belong to this Great Whole. Unfortunately, today, to practice outdoor sports is also to notice the damage done to the environment.
Because we want to preserve this nature that allows us to live and to be, Mamaz has adopted an eco-friendly approach, on its own scale.
First, we have chosen an ecological holiday accommodation: camping. Indeed, thanks to a lowered water and electricity use, a decrease in food waste, a limitation and sorting of waste, … camping is one of the most eco-friendly ways to travel.
Joining Mamaz also means using some pieces of furniture made of pallets that we have collected on supermarket parkings, or scraps of wood salvaged from local construction sites.
We are also trying to educate our clients on the spontaneous collection of trash on the beach.
Finally, in France and abroad, Mamaz works with local companies and cooperatives.
Being part of the Mamaz adventure is therefore going on holidays, having fun and enjoying oneself while protecting Mother Nature.
