Slow down and spend time with the people who work along Penida’s coast. Learn how seaweed is grown and used, then try the practical steps with a local farmer.

For curious travellers who enjoy local food and farming stories, coastal scenery and a more personal island experience.

An island tradition you can take part in.

From preparing seaweed to working in the shallows, this is a chance to ask questions and learn by doing. The program also includes a visit to Diamond Beach or a requested sight, with the route agreed with Ayu.
