Wildcrafted Raw Irish Sea Moss – Vegan, Sun-Dried & Mineral-Rich
The Purest Caribbean Sea Moss, Harvested With Care and Backed by Real Science
✅ 100% Natural | ✅ Caribbean Harvested | ✅ No Preservatives
About This Product
Our Wildcrafted Raw Irish Sea Moss is sustainably harvested from the clean, protected waters of St. Lucia, known for producing some of the highest-quality Caribbean sea moss in the world. Each batch is collected by trained local divers (as shown in the video above) using traditional methods that protect the natural ocean environment in a sustainable way.
This raw vegan sea moss is naturally sun-dried, not machine processed or chemically altered, which helps preserve its mineral-rich profile. The result is a clean, authentic form of wildcrafted sea moss that delivers natural iodine, magnesium, potassium and other essential nutrients found in true ocean-harvested varieties.
Batches are sent for third-party lab testing to verify micro, safety and heavy metals levels so you can trust that what you are consuming is safe and high quality. Because it is unprocessed and free from additives, this St. Lucia sea moss rehydrates and, once made into sea moss gel, blends easily into coffee, teas, smoothies and your daily wellness routine.
From ancestral tradition to modern quality standards, this is sea moss the way nature intended: wildcrafted, mineral-rich, lab tested and harvested with care.

🧾 Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is your sea moss pool grown?
A: Absolutely not. Our sea moss is ocean-harvested from St. Lucia and never grown in pools. Learn more on our product page where we include diver footage and sourcing info.
Q: My sea moss didn’t soften – what now?
A: Soaking time can vary. If it hasn’t softened after 24 hours, use warm water. It must be soft before blending into a gel.
Q: Is this Chondrus crispus?
A: No. It’s Kappaphycus alvarezii. While both are called Irish sea moss, they are different species with different textures and growing climates.
Q: Is this sea moss dried or fresh?
A: It is sun-dried sea moss, naturally preserved and shelf-stable.
Q: Why is it called Irish moss if it's from St. Lucia?
A: “Irish moss” is a widely used term for various red algae. While ours is not Chondrus crispus, it is commonly used in similar ways.
Q: The sea moss I received is taking longer to soften/gelatinize – does that mean it's a bad batch?
A: No. Since we are dealing with nature, the amount of time it takes to soak the moss can vary. Some batches are tougher and may require a longer soak or warm water. This is normal.
Q: Is this considered raw sea moss?
A: Yes. It’s raw sea moss, never processed or chemically altered.
Q: Is your sea moss organic?
A: It’s wildcrafted in its natural ocean environment with no fertilizers or pesticides. While not USDA-certified, it is organic by nature.
Q: Does heat kill minerals in sea moss?
A: No. Minerals like iodine and magnesium are heat-stable, so using warm or hot water is fine.
Q: My sea moss looks different than before – does that mean something is wrong?
A: No. The color, texture and scent can vary by batch. This is normal for wildcrafted sea moss.
Q: Is your sea moss lab tested?
A: Yes, we conduct periodic lab testing for micro and heavy metals to help ensure safety and quality.
