Pearl & Squids
Pearl Farm & Make Your Jewellery
They don’t call Hong Kong the Pearl of the Orient for nothing; its charm and elegance truly captivate all who visit. In fact, situated just minutes away from the scenic shores of Hebe Haven in Sai Kung is the renowned Hong Kong Pearl Cultivation Association, which proudly stands as Hong Kong’s only dedicated pearl farm. Here you can immerse yourself in the fascinating 4,000-year-old history of pearls and join an engaging three-hour pearl accessory making workshop (from $780). During this unique experience, you will learn valuable skills such as how to shuck, carefully harvest, and expertly grade your very own pearl before transforming it into a stunning piece of jewellery that reflects your personal style.
