Visit Pearl Farms

Phu Quoc, often called the “Pearl Island,” is famous for its pearl cultivation, and visiting one of its pearl farms is both educational and unique. Renowned farms such as Ngoc Hien and Quoc An showcase the intricate process of raising oysters, harvesting pearls, and crafting exquisite jewelry. These farms combine local heritage with modern aquaculture, offering travelers a chance to witness Phu Quoc’s prized craftsmanship up close.

Pearl farming in Phu Quoc has a long tradition, with the island’s clean waters providing an ideal environment for oyster cultivation. On a visit, you can take guided tours that explain the different types of pearls, their value, and the detailed steps involved in cultivation—from inserting nuclei into oysters to pearl extraction. You’ll be able to observe live demonstrations, interact with artisans, and even try opening oysters yourself.

In addition to these hands-on experiences, you can browse on-site showrooms where authentic pearl jewelry is displayed and sold directly from the farms. Since the farms are spread across the island, with several located near Duong Dong and An Thoi, it’s easy to add a stop to your itinerary. A trip to a pearl farm not only enriches your cultural understanding but also gives you the chance to take home a meaningful and valuable souvenir.
