Walk a working organic cacao farm with the family who grows it, then hand-grind roasted beans into your own chocolate bar over an open flame.
What to expect
A short walk through cacao, banana, and spice groves precedes the real event: roasting, peeling, and grinding beans by hand on a traditional stone metate. Owners share stories of reviving heirloom cacao varieties after decades of banana monoculture nearby. You'll taste chocolate at every stage, from raw nib to finished bar. Small groups keep it personal and unrushed.
Good to know
Runs about 2.5 hours, easy walking, good for all ages; located a short taxi ride from the pier — arrange transport in advance since it's outside town center.
