Tahiti is just one of 118 islands that make up French Polynesia which
lies 4,105 miles SSW from Los Angeles.
French Polynesia covers over one and half million square miles of the South Pacific Ocean but
the total land mass of all the islands put together is only 1,544 square miles.
The islands of French Polynesia
are where the famous black lipped oyster is found. This is the only oyster that
creates a naturally black pearl.
We travel all over the world to get you the best prices on
jewelry, but Tahiti is our favorite place. The links to the left will take you to the
islands and show you how black pearls are
farmed.
Since December 1997 we have been traveling to the
Tahitian islands. In that time we have collected alot of information and some incredible
video footage. One of the most exciting things we've done is go on a treasure
expidition searching for some lost pirate loot hidden somewhere in the islands
circa 1870.
So far we have produced one 90 minute video called
Jeremiah's Quest for the Black Pearl.
And we have several more in the works.
