For the harvesting experience, you'll board a boat from the hotel beach and head out to the seaweed farms (about 10 minutes) offshore. The seaweed, nurtured in strong currents, will be salted after harvesting and then preserved as a souvenir. Furthermore, we'll offer you a tasting of fresh seaweed shabu-shabu right there.
