Low Tide Shelling in Marco Island Florida. My secret spot that you can only get to at low tide!

Low Tide Shelling at South Beach on Marco Island is awesome! There is a little strip of beach that you can only get to at low tide for shelling. If you know anyone that happens to live in one of those very exclusive, gorgeous towers, please let them know we need to be friends.

I really appreciate that you take the time to put the "critters" back in the water -- I wish more people realized that doing a small kindness can be accomplished in seconds.

[@SWFBeachLife]

I can't help myself! As much as I love these shells, without the critters we wouldn't have any. The beach provide so many things to love! ❤️🐚

[@Averagetunafish3683]

So I was at honeymoon island in Dunedin and there was this drying up Tide pool with with sea slugs in it and we took 45 minutes to Look for every Sea slug and we Saved them All then 2 days later the tide pool was dried up and then we noticed that we saved them all

What a fun beach day. Thank you for taking us all along. 💙🐚

Shark eyes are my five year old's favorite shells, he watches all of your shelling videos with me and loves identifying all of them! He was astonished at that humongous shark eye you found! He found one while we were in Florida this spring, and he keeps it on his night stand. Thanks for bringing us along with you!

[@SWFBeachLife]

I think that is a perfect spot for a shark eye! I was actually really surprised it was the whole shell. They always trick me! Well, almost always trick me 🤗 I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

[@annjohnson543]

No, you are not crazy and you are NOT alone!!! I get so much pleasure out of shelling, and looking at my shells now and then. WOW, what a haul.

[@SWFBeachLife]

I was really hoping this special spot would be awesome and it was! Can't wait to share the rest of the goodies I find. Thanks for coming along and Happy Thanksgiving!

[@hilltophomestead7262]

Wow. I can't even imagine...I've lived in Western Washington my entire life...often gone to the beach, but rarely find shells. Occasionally sand dollars, but mostly just sand and driftwood, lol. Thanks for giving me a glimpse of another kind of beach life!! So fascinating!

[@HarmoniMcG]

@@SWFBeachLife believe it or not I am from Marco island. Well born in Naples raised on goodland spent much of my childhood on the beach in marco. My mom and aunt liked the south end because they could sunbathe topless (no tan lines haha) without worrying about anyone coming along. It was cool watching this. Took me all the way back. I was maybe 2 I think when we went down there once and my mom was getting some sun Santa I was climbing around in those rocks, made my way out a good way and I remember it clearly.. . I could see what I thought were more rocks of don't kind able they seemed to be moving. Swimming. I was looking at sting rays as it turned out. There were Dozens to put a loose conservative number on them but if I'm honest about it I think it was more like hundreds of them. My poor mother nearly died of heart failure scrambling over the rocks to grab me up... Funny how everything down in that little hidey-hole things look mostly the same. The island is unrecognizable in large part but there's still that one place that remains unchanged. .. from that place you would have had a view also of the lump. Pompano lump. When my mother passed last year we spread her ashes there and did some fantastic shelling. Or was pretty amazing.

[@SWFBeachLife]

@@HarmoniMcG What a story! I would have had a heart attack too if my kid was near all those rays! Of course I have seen the rays like that in the dozens (cow nose rays) and they are just gorgeous. The island is very, very built up, but the beaches are still gorgeous and I always look forward to spending time in that area. Thank you so much for sharing your story. I wish I could have seen what the area looked like back then.

That gorgeous little pile of shells was how most of Sanibel Island beach looked when I was a kid in the 60's. It was beautiful! Thanks I enjoyed your shelling time. And I too as a kid had to put the poor stranded live ones back into the water. It was a wonderful place to visit.

[@SWFBeachLife]

The beach can really be a such a magical place. Thank you so much for coming along with me!

[@dm8573]

You are not crazy. I too LOVE the Juvenile Florida Fighting Conchs! The color on each one is so different and those you found today are beautiful! I've said it before but I'm saying it again, I respect you SO much for how gentle you are with the living creatures and how you put them back in the water making sure they make it. Mother Nature was watching you do that so she rewarded you with some awesome finds! Can't wait to continue your walk next week! Happy Thanksgiving :)

[@SWFBeachLife]

Someone said it was beach karma - do something kind and the beach goddesses will give a reward. I love that! I am a sucker for critters and enjoy learning about them and seeing them "out in the wild." I found a creature that I've never seen before alive and can't wait to share in an upcoming video!

So much fun! My husband and I were at Marco this weekend. I finally got to do my tour with Treasure Seekers tour. We went to “Shell Island” I forget what it’s actually called. 😆 wow, so many shells. My shell bag so heavy I had to keep putting it down. I said too I wasn’t going to grab the fighting conchs but can’t resist some. We went to Tigertail beach twice and I finally broke my losing streak on rose petal tellens. I was like “Sharmon would be so proud of me!” Great video! 🤗🐚🐚🐚🐚

[@SWFBeachLife]

Congrats on the rose petal tellins! Isn't it awesome when you find something you've been hunting for? I will eventually experience all the tours myself but haven't been on that one yet. I have learned to try to not pick up the FFCs until I'm heading off the beach. Those beauties are heavy!

I watched a video from Solace In Shelling this afternoon and he was finding amazing shells. The shells were quite beautiful and some that I’m not sure if they are found on the beaches you show us. Just wanted to mention in case you might want to check it out. As always thank you for your videos, I wait every week. You are a delight and It’s wonderful how you identify every shell you find.

Wow! What a awesome thing to just have the shells rolling in the surf. Those juvenile ffc are gorgeous!!! ❤️I do love the banded tulips also. I was so jealous watching this. I wish I could have been there too! 😁 So I live my life vicariously through you ☺️Thanks for taking us with you! Happy Thanksgiving 🦃

Not every day is like this, but this one little spot is such a treasure trove of goodies! It might be even better since you can't really access it all that often. Thanks so much for coming along with me and Happy Thanksgiving to you too!
