Manusurf, a story of passion

Our Story

For 20 years, the adventure has continued

It all began in 1999. After spending several years in the Basque Country, Emmanuel de Saint-Rémy - “Manu” - returned to surf in his native region, the Vendée, just a stone’s throw from the famous Bud Bud spot.

Together with a few local enthusiasts, he helped found the Longeville Surf Club, which quickly became a gathering place for local surfers.

At the same time, Manu launched a project that would soon become a staple on the Vendée coast: Manusurf School, one of the first surf schools in the department.

For more than 20 years, the adventure has continued with the same goal: to share surf culture and pass on a passion for the ocean.

The Manusurf Spirit

At Manusurf, surfing is a way of life.

Surfing is about learning to listen to the ocean, respecting nature, and fully enjoying the present moment. Every wave is different; every session is unique. It’s this magic that the Manusurf team strives to share with everyone who stops by the hut.
Beyond technique, what we teach above all is :
  • humility in the face of the ocean
  • the joy of riding the waves
  • sharing and camaraderie
Because a good surfer is, above all, someone who enjoys themselves… and loves to share that joy.
