Our mission
Surfing is more than just a sport to us – it’s a way to grow and to become more mindful of ourselves, others, nature, and the ocean. That’s why we’re committed to making surfing accessible for people of all backgrounds, genders, and abilities.
Through our projects, we want to spark inspiration within the surf community, empower individuals, and break down barriers. We believe in learning from each other, sharing knowledge, and encouraging people to take action.
In 2025, our focus is on women empowerment.
As a non-profit surf organization founded by women, we are passionate about supporting women in the water and strengthening their self-confidence. We truly believe that everyone can surf – and that connecting with the ocean can change lives.
What NOMB stands for
Nature
Ocean
Mind
Body
Nature is our origin and our home. Mother earth is the basis of existence for all beings, and we strive to respect and protect her.
The ocean as our place of energy as well as our playground. Our safe haven and our challenge. Here we find balance, connection, energy. Its protection is our mission.
Change begins within the mind. We believe in the importance of mental health, equality and equal opportunity. We offer safe space for personal experiences and challenges.
Our body is the most complex machine ever built. We promote body experience and positive body images. We encourage personal challenges and individual growth.
About us
Our background
Surfing connects us not just to the waves, but to impactful initiatives across the globe. As four friends united by our love for the ocean, we harness the power of surfing to embark on diverse projects that advocate for environmental sustainability, social equality, and community empowerment. We leverage our unique experiences and shared passion to initiate real-world changes. Through surfing, we open doors to new cultures, promote inclusivity, and inspire action towards protecting our planet.
Based on the rugged shores of Fuerteventura, our journey began.
