Description

Begin your journey with a pickup from your hotel in the early afternoon. Drive through lush coconut plantations, spice farms, and coastal paths to reach the village of Tumbe. Be welcomed by a group of smiling women dressed in colorful kangas. After a short introduction, walk together down to the shallow lagoon. The sea stretches far out at low tide, revealing hundreds of wooden stakes tied with ropes of green and red seaweed swaying gently under the sun. Learn how to tie, plant, and harvest seaweed, and hear how tides, moon cycles, and temperature affect the work. Discover how dried seaweed is transformed into organic cosmetics, soaps, and wellness products that are now sold across Zanzibar and East Africa. After the farming session, return to the beach huts where your hosts prepare a traditional sunset feast: coconut rice, fried cassava, spicy octopus, and a refreshing glass of homemade seaweed juice — a surprisingly delicious and healthy drink. As the sun sets over the Pemba Channel, the sky glows orange and purple. Sit on woven mats, chatting and sharing stories with the women who’ve made this place thrive through unity and sustainability.
