How to get Pearls in Disney Dreamlight Valley

Pearls may not be the most fashionable of stones these days, but they are a valuable crafting resource once you’ve purchased the Rift in Time DLC for Disney Dreamlight Valley. Finding them isn’t very straightforward, though, so here’s where you can get these oyster-made precious gems.

You’d be forgiven for thinking that to get Pearls, you’d need to find oysters. However, the oysters of Eternity Isle aren’t as attached to their creations as you may expect, because you can find them under the ground. 

Where to find Pearls in Disney Dreamlight Valley

Pearls can only be found in Ancient’s Landing on Eternity Isle. To find them, you’ll need to equip your Shovel and start digging in the grass around the area. Each dig spot has a chance to produce at least one pearl, although you may also get Star Coins, Memory Shards, or Soil. You’ll need to dig a lot of holes if you want to get a large number of Pearls. 

If you’re worried about the area being filled with holes or the effort involved in filling them in, you can use the rug trick to get rid of them:

1. Enter Furniture Mode and place a rug down over the holes you dug
2. Move the rug around to cover all of the holes
3. Exit Furniture Mode with the rug still in the world to permanently delete the holes
4. Re-enter Furniture Mode, remove the rug, and exit Furniture Mode
