Sargasso is a type of brown, free-floating seaweed (Sargassum) that is prevalent in the Sargasso Sea, a region in the Atlantic Ocean bounded by four currents forming an ocean gyre. The term can also refer to this very sea region itself. The Sargassum seaweed is known for its distinctive floating mats that provide habitats for certain types of marine life.
