Why take advantage?

At the tip of Finistère, you'll find Europe's largest seaweed fields. Used in the food industry, cosmetics, agriculture, health and biomaterials, seaweed is a part of our daily lives, revealing a wealth of future potential. Harvested for centuries by seaweed farmers, hand-picked and sometimes cultivated, discover the history of this astonishing plant from the sea. From April to October, the museum offers a wide range of activities for the whole family to discover seaweed: guided tours, seaweed discoveries on the foreshore, seaweed cooking workshops, creative seaweed workshops, company visits, seaweed diving, traditional navigation on a heritage seaweed sailboat, seaweed cooking courses with a chef...
