Nanihi Paradise is also the logistical base for a group of pearl cultivation sites owned by the Mabe Factory company which specializes in the production of Tahitian Mabes and pearls.
Vaiana Dantin, one of the pioneers of Mabe grafting on the atoll of Manihi, conducts grafting sessions at regular intervals, and maybe you will have the chance to witness this delicate operation that happens at the same time as the harvesting. Philippe, who is in charge of taking care of the cultivation lines, can organize at your request a free dive of the cultivation site during one of his working sessions.
The works in Mabe available for sale during your stay come exclusively from the Nanihi Paradise site after having undergone transformation and mounting steps in our workshops on Moorea. 
Only at Nanihi Paradise can you discover and learn what Mabe is, the other jewel produced by the pearl oyster. Take advantage of the opportunity!
Depending on the grafting periods, you can also visit a classic pearl farm and see the grafting techniques imported from Japan, after having listened to the history of the pearl adventure in Polynesia and the theory of modern pearl farming.
You will depart Nanihi Paradise loaded, having purchased naked pearls, or pearls mounted in gold, white gold, or silver jewelry, and Mabe of course. We offer prices for all budgets, tax free jewelry, and we accept payment by credit card. And, of course, all the pearls are certified by Mabe Factory.
So, realize your dream of leaving with a pearl, or a Mabe from Manihi, cradle of pearl farming in Polynesia.
