Sea moss primarily grows along the coasts of the Atlantic Ocean, particularly between North America and Europe. It is also found in the warmer waters of Asia, South America, Africa, and certain parts of the Caribbean.
Here's a breakdown of its geographical distribution:
-
Atlantic Ocean: This is the primary region where sea moss thrives. The waters between North America and Europe offer suitable conditions for its growth.
-
Caribbean: Certain areas within the Caribbean provide a favorable environment for sea moss cultivation and growth.
-
Asia: Warmer coastal waters in Asia support sea moss populations.
-
South America: Sea moss can be found along the coasts of South America where the water temperatures are suitable.
-
Africa: Similar to South America and Asia, the warmer coastal waters of Africa are also conducive to sea moss growth.
Sea moss typically attaches to rocks and other submerged surfaces in shallow coastal waters. It prefers environments with adequate sunlight and nutrient availability.
