One of the largest natural diving economies in the world was the Arabian Gulf. Early last century there were many pearling boats along the Trucial Coast. Until the last century the pearls trade was at its peak. These days there are some groups who take you to dive to the ocean floor in search for their pearls. Some reporters were invited to write about pearl diving and tourism. Two centuries ago the pearl was the financial lifeblood for Emiratis. The pearl industry in the UAE collapsed when the Far East pearl farmers cultured pearl by putting a foreign drop in each oyster to make fine pearls fast.

In Dubai you can still enjoy this experience from a group of companies, which offers the traditional clothes, food and old stories including diving for pearls.
