the thallus (or body) consists of flat or leaf-like structures known as blades. Blades originate from elongated stem-like structures, the stipes.

So they dont move on their own but if broken they float and move along the currents .

Kelp can not move by itself, if kelp has moved from one location to another it is due to the current.

Kelp moves with the current around it, the same way wind moves trees.

Kelp does not move generally. It may move with the current or with other forms of life, but as far as moving with pseudopodia, cilia, or flagella it does not.
