At Surf With Amigas, we’ve always believed that surfing is more than just a sport—it’s a lifestyle, a sisterhood, and a way to connect with the ocean and ourselves. But even the most passionate surfers need the right gear, and that’s where our incredible partners come in. Each of our affiliate brands has a story and a commitment to empowering women in the water, and we’re proud to share their journeys with you!
Mamala: A Legacy of Strength and Connection We first met the founder of Mamala on one of our Surf With Amigas retreats—a passionate surfer whose brand was born from a desire to create durable, eco-friendly wetsuits made by women, for women.
Here are some words from the Mamala founder, Angela:
“I’ve always been a big believer in performance—and I was unsatisfied with the choices and quality of wetsuits I was buying—I decided to start a women’s wetsuit company focused entirely on performance and women. Named after and inspired by a fearless demigoddess—both shark and woman—who symbolizes both femininity and strength, Mamala has been on a never-ending quest to create high-performance wetsuits to enhance women’s cold water experience. Through collaborations with women surfers, support for women’s surf contests and initiatives that promote women’s participation in surfing, Mamala is committed to building a strong, supportive community for women in the lineup.”
The brand is all about honoring the ocean and the women who ride it with courage and grace. Their major goal is growth—both as a women’s wetsuit company and as a leader in high-performance, sustainable wetsuits made specifically for women. They are here to set the standard and build a strong and supportive community for women surfers. Use the discount code SWA20 at checkout for 20% off your next order!
Carve: Born on the Waves, Built for Women Our introduction to Carve was a little different—a recommendation from an amiga who swore by their surfwear. Founded on the Australian coast, Carve began with a mission to create stylish, high-quality surf gear designed specifically for women. Built by surfers who saw a gap in the boardshorts market, Carve’s comfortable fits and bold designs quickly became a favorite for our instructors, offering both style and strength in the water. This is a small surf/lifestyle brand that designs classic, sophisticated styles for all different stages of life. Use the discount code SURFWITHAMIGAS10 at checkout for 10% off your next order!
Salt Gypsy: Where Sustainability Meets Style Salt Gypsy is the brainchild of Danielle Clayton, a former surf guide turned entrepreneur who saw the need for stylish, sustainable surfwear for women. Her journey began with a single pair of surf leggings that quickly turned into a global brand known for its eco-conscious fabrics and commitment to women in surfing. For us, Salt Gypsy is more than just gear—it’s a story of resilience, creativity, and riding waves with purpose. Use the discount code SURFWITHAMIGAS10 at checkout for 10% off your next order!

Kaiola: Stylish Sun Protection for Every Wave Our connection with Kaiola began with a simple but essential idea—surf gear should make you feel free, not restricted. Founded by a team of passionate surfers who understand the unique needs of women in the water, Kaiola is all about creating high-performance surfwear that doesn’t sacrifice comfort or style. All of their pieces are designed to move with you, whether you’re paddling out, riding a wave, or stretching on the sand. Kaiola’s unique chin strap is our favorite part about their hats, be it bucket, visor, or baseball cap! The sleek design ensures that the hat doesn’t disrupt your surfing experience yet stays on, even in big, powerful surf. Our instructors love Kaiola’s designs, which offer a perfect blend of support, durability, and style. Use the discount code SURFWITHAMIGAS10 at checkout for 10% off your next order!
