H'Omaha Nature – Sea & Gym
Mer & Gym is an original, fun activity that involves muscle-strengthening exercises in seawater. Accessible to all, it is practised with the water at waist height, to allow effective movements while remaining safe and comfortable.
The sessions alternate a variety of dynamic exercises designed to strengthen muscles, improve coordination and stimulate the cardiovascular system, with periods of lunging to recover. The natural resistance of the water intensifies the muscular workout while limiting the impact on the joints, making the activity particularly enjoyable and accessible.
Practised on Omaha Beach, the Sea & Gym activity lets you take full advantage of the benefits of the marine environment. The sea air, the waves and the vastness of the coastline create a unique setting for getting moving and revitalising.
The seawater also has a natural massaging effect that promotes blood circulation, muscle relaxation and a feeling of well-being. The sessions take place in a friendly atmosphere, conducive to sharing and good humour.
Accessible to beginners and regular exercisers alike, Mer & Gym is a dynamic and refreshing way to keep fit while enjoying the exceptional Normandy coastline.
The starting point for the session is decided a few days beforehand, depending on the weather and tides.
Minimum age 14 years.
