OVERVIEW

See how coconuts and cacao beans are processed into a variety of products available for sampling, an experience that will whet your appetite for a tropical island lunch. Coconut Adventures – the island’s first coconut plantation – will be the setting for your immersion in the world of coconuts. After seeing how they are harvested, you may be surprised by their versatility. Coconuts are farmed for their mineral-rich meat, the nutritious water inside and even their outer fibers or coir, which are spun into fishing nets and ropes. It is a fascinating process as is the one that turns raw cacao beans into delicious chocolate. Besides watching the production step by step at the plantation, you will sample some of the artisanal chocolates made there. Afterwards, you will enjoy free time to browse a popular straw market that carries an array of merchandise, most of them handmade from natural materials.
