Founded in 1998 by legendary Polynesian pearl producer Robert WAN, this museum takes you through the complete world of pearls — from ancient myths and cultural history across civilizations to the science of how they're made. It's one of the few places where you can genuinely understand why Tahitian black pearls are so prized, straight from the source. Compact but surprisingly rich, it's worth an hour of your time in Papeete.
