Farm Black Pearl Seychelles
Seychelles, Amitie

The Seychelles Black Pearl Farm is located on the west coast of the island of Praslin, part of the Seychelles archipelago, in the village of Amity, near the local airport. At the Black Pearl farm, they breed Pinctada Margaritifera, which produces black pearls (in fact, the color of pearls can be from light silver to black), and they also make jewelry. In the jewelry store you can buy pearls themselves, as well as rings, earrings, pendants, necklaces and bracelets not only from black pearls set in yellow or white 18-carat gold, but also with green, pink, lavender, blue, copper, bronze and gold pearls. Visitors to the farm have a unique opportunity during the tour to learn about the technology of growing black pearls, visit the mollusk incubator and jewelry workshop. In addition, the Black Pearl farm breeds giant multi-colored molluscs Tridacna Maxima, which are very popular among European and American aquarists. On a farm, these mollusks are found in eight outdoor pools adjacent to tropical fish, starfish and other coral reef dwellers. Farm staff will tell visitors about the method of breeding Tridacna Maxima, their way of life in symbiosis with microscopic zooxanthellae, and they will also give advice on keeping colorful Tridacna Maxima giant mollusks in your home aquarium.
