'''Seaweed''' is an item that can be found in the [[ocean]] by [[fishing]] during all [[seasons]]. It can also be foraged along the bottom shore of the tidal pool beach, across the bridge that needs repairing.<ref name="location" /> There is a 41% chance to catch Seaweed while fishing in the deep-sea submarine ride at the [[Night Market]]. Several [[Crab Pot]] [[fish]] may produce 1-3 Seaweed in a [[Fish Pond]] when the population of the pond is at least 1.

Catching Seaweed with a Fishing Pole gives 3 [[Fishing]] XP. Picking up Seaweed from the beach gives 7 [[Foraging]] XP.

It can also be foraged from a narrow strip of shore by the [[Tide Pools]], ''i.e.'' to the east of the wooden footbridge.<ref name="location" />, but it spawns relatively infrequently (3% chance per night). Several [[Crab Pot]] [[fish]] may produce 1-3 Seaweed in a [[Fish Pond]] when the population of the pond is at least 1.

Catching Seaweed with a Fishing Pole always produces standard-quality seaweed and gives 3 [[Fishing]] XP. Picking up Seaweed from the beach gives 7 [[Foraging]] XP, with quality controlled by foraging skill and bonuses (including possibly iridium quality).

Seaweed is displayed in the [[Collections#Fish|Fish section]] of the [[Collections|collection]] tab, and counts towards the four fishing [[Fishing#Achievements|Achievements]].<ref name="quasi_fish" />  However, it is not otherwise considered to be a fish, and therefore cannot be sold to [[Willy]] at the [[Fish Shop]].
