Itinerary (Day by Day)

  • Day 1: Paje Village, Zanzibar - 3 hrs Guided Tour
  • The Seaweed Center is a socially responsible initiative that provides over 40 female seaweed farmers in Paje, Zanzibar, with an opportunity to better their lives and benefit their community. The project comprises seaweed farms on Paje Beach, a gathering site for seaweed processing as well as a seaweed products factory located approximately 1 hour drive from Stone Town. The factory produces soaps, creams, and other treatment scrubs from seaweed flavored with other organic ingredients such as Lang that are currently sold locally to the villagers around, to the neighboring tourist hotels, in Stone Town, and slowly beginning to be distributed around East Africa.

    Visitors on a tour of the Seaweed Centre get a rare opportunity to experience the daily life of a seaweed-farming woman, the facilities, and the capacity-building activities that the Centre provides. Visitors are invited to go out to the beach farms to plant, tender, or harvest seaweed for a hands-on experience in ocean agriculture which is an important economic activity for many women living on Zanzibar's East and Southern Coastline.
