Half-Day Private Seaweed Farm Tour in Bwejuu, Zanzibar (2026 - 2027)

Seaweed Farm Tour in Bwejuu

Pick up from Bwejuu and start your morning with a short walk toward the wide, sunlit beach, where the tide reveals rows of wooden sticks tied with green seaweed strands. Your guide introduces you to local women farmers dressed in colorful kangas, who welcome you to join their daily work. As you walk barefoot through the shallow water, you’ll see how seaweed is planted, tied, and harvested with care a tradition passed down through generations. The sparkling water reflects the blue sky, and the scent of the sea fills the air as you learn about seaweed’s many uses in cosmetics, food, and natural medicine. After observing the drying and processing stages near the shore, you’ll enjoy a relaxed moment under a palm tree, sipping fresh coconut water while taking in the stunning coastal view. The tour ends with a short walk back along Bwejuu Beach, where you can capture photos of the local life and the breathtaking Indian Ocean horizon.
