Surprisingly Productive Day Shelling on the Beach

Today we're out at a new beach to me, Sunset beach, NC. I didn't really expect to find anything and I wasn't finding much until I made it to the rock piles!

So happy you posted a video! Moons everywhere! Gorgeous whelk, perfect day at the beach!

Oh how fun!!! I love tide pools. That channeled whelk is amazing! 🤗🐚🐚🐚🐚

It was very exciting and surprising! Thank you for watching :)

Those shark eyes were all over that joint..

[@shellstories]

It's crazy how many there were considering there was hardly anything on the beach beyond the rocks!

Went to Holden beach in April. I can't even begin to tell you all the shells and shark's teeth I found.

I can only imagine. I went shelling there for a little over a week and it was pretty incredible. Thank you for watching and commenting!

Are you allowed to remove coral from NC beaches? Some places restrict collecting coral, even dead coral.

People do it all the time here and I've yet to see signage (ie at Holden where beachcombing is super popular, or even down in Southwest Florida) specifically prohibiting it.
