about
Toba is the living center of the Ama freediving tradition, where women divers have harvested abalone, seaweed, urchin, and shellfish for centuries. The Ama Museum preserves this heritage, while local festivals and cuisine keep the culture intact. But unfortunately, the Ama are struggling to find younger generation divers to keep the tradition alive.
