A cool, well-appointed shop within walking distance of the Old Port / Ocean Gateway / ferry terminal. I will definitely recommend this spot to friends visiting “from away.”

Interesting variety of macroalgae-based products, from lotions and soaps to food additives and teas, plus a great selection of souvenirs such as shirts, hats, and glassware. Really interesting spot and a great place to pick up unique items.
