Promoting Cocoa Tourism
Cocoa tourism offers a unique opportunity for visitors to discover the artisanal process of cocoa cultivation and production, from the bean to the exquisite chocolate we enjoy. Our network member destinations provide enriching experiences that include plantation tours, chocolate-making workshops and guided tastings, highlighting local cultural heritage and traditions.
The World Cocoa and Cocoa Derivatives Tourism Destinations Network is committed to promoting sustainable practices that protect the environment and improve the quality of life of the communities involved in cocoa production. We support initiatives that encourage regenerative agriculture, fair trade and biodiversity conservation, ensuring that cocoa tourism is a positive force for economic and social development.

On this World Cocoa Day, we call on governments, businesses and consumers to support cocoa tourism and to value the efforts of the communities that make it possible. We invite everyone to visit our destinations and discover the magic of cocoa through authentic and sustainable experiences.
