The Suwaidi pearl farm in Ras Al Khaimah, located in the United Arab Emirates, is an impressive example of the fusion of millennia-old tradition and modern pearl cultivation technology. We at Vallée had the special opportunity to visit this unique pearl farm and get an idea of ​​its fascinating history and innovative approaches.

Vallée Pearl Farm

A historical legacy

Suwaidi Pearl Farm was founded by Abdulla Al Suwaidi to preserve the memory of his grandfather, a distinguished pearl diver, and to revive the rich tradition of pearl farming in the region. Once a major centre of the pearl industry, Ras Al Khaimah was known for its prosperity, which was based on the quality and rarity of the pearls found here.

This long history is evident in every detail of the farm – from the traditional methods that are respectfully presented to the stories of the daring diving adventures of generations past.

The experience at Suwaidi Pearl Farm

Our visit to the Suwaidi pearl farm was a unique experience that we would like to share with you:

  • We started our tour with a ride on a traditional boat while the importance of the surrounding mangroves and waters was explained to us.

  • The farm staff showed us old tools and told stories about the challenges and techniques of the earlier pearl divers.

  • On a floating pontoon we were able to experience the modern processes of pearl cultivation first hand. Scientific methods and traditional techniques
    go hand in hand here.

  • A particular highlight was opening oysters. With a bit of luck, some of us even discovered an Arabian pearl.

  • In the farm’s shop we found an exclusive selection of pearl jewelry that will remind us of this special experience for a long time to come.
