Good Morning! I got a kick out of that way you loved the candy shells. I live on the east coast of NC and have a collection of those very shells. So, just left Sanibel yesterday. First disappointed at the lack of shells and the rain, however, a true shelter never gives up!!! Captiva🤗 I found so many Florida Conch, and other goodies, in the waters edge. The waves were rough and water kind of cloudy, but determined, I scored!!! Your advice was spot on, the shells are there, don’t give up!

Awesome finds! The east coast has a really cool diversity of shells too, despite the hard ocean waves crushing many of them. Those are 1000% lion's paws you've got there! I've heard of pieces and small ones being more common on the east coast, (as appose to SW Florida) especially Jupiter island, but nevertheless those are spectacular finds! You are probably right on the almost flat in appearance scallops, I think they scaly scallops. Cool sculptured top snail you got! I think with that shell you can see how much more rounded it is on the edges as oppose to west coast Florida top snails (which I still think are Tampa Bay tops). Your shell at 5:34 looks like an Atlantic hairy triton to me. Also, I think your mystery shell at 9:55 is also an Atlantic hairy triton! Those are a really cool east coast speciality too. At 10:29 the piece you called a murex I think could maybe be a frog shell (Bursa thomae) but I am not 100% sure, maybe could be a murex, maybe something else, but my best guess would be that it's a frog shell. The mystery piece might be an Atlantic hairy triton? I'm not sure, too much of the shell is missing to know for sure. Neat thorny oysters you got too! Cool finds!

It was nice to finally see different species of shells. Those little round guys are so hard to tell what they are once they've been worn down a little. They all start looking the same! Since the Pacific is so much more robust than our gulf, I can see why the shells are prone to being broken or smoothed out, making it that much harder to identify. I was so excited about the Lion's Paws! My first time seeing them for myself on the beach like that. At least I got a couple of whole little guys. They're so cool! The following day we hit another beach and found a few more first-time finds. Thanks so much for your comments and thank you for watching!

My favorite area to look for shells. I think the brown little one is a tinted cantharus. Some of the colorful shells are spiney oysters. I believe the bright orange small scallops are called Senis Scallops. The ocean is still churned up. It was really bad following the two hurricanes by Bermuda and the King Tide.

I have a question, do shells somehow travel from the west coast to East ? Or do we have the same shells? I hunt for sea glass on the regular JUP beach, bc it’s in walking distance from my house. I used to find a lot of sea glass in the 90s, but basically nothing now. Someone told me to look on Jup island, but it seems like not much there either . Did you only find that one piece?

East Coast/West Coat shells...these critters live in the same temperate waters, so they live in both areas, thereby allowing the shells to be found on both coasts. Sea Glass...almost NONE on the West Coast. I've found a bunch of glass, but it was garbage - nothing that was smooth enough to classify as sea glass. I found that one piece on the East Coast and that was it. And on the West Coast after shelling for a year I've found 1 piece. If the one I found in Jupiter had sharper edges or wasn't worn I would have just recycled it. Thank you for subscribing! I won't show you much sea glass, but I'll certainly take you to the beach and find critters and shells and whatnot. 😉

Admittedly, it's tough to get on the beach on the South end. There is public parking, but in order to get all the way to the south end, it's probably over a 2 mile walk. There is paid parking (sometimes) at the Wyndham, which will get you as South as you can get parking-wise. Otherwise there are other streets you can park on - but you're going to have a long walk. Probably why that part of the island is NEVER crowded! You can also try parking at the Lovers Key lot just across the bridge and then walk over to the South end.

Thank you! Some of these shells have a few different names and it's driving me crazy!! LOL.

Mystery shells Look like dove shells.

Sweetie...it's Hobe Sound not Hope Sound.

Mi piacerebbe averne una grande originale perché se si comprano al negozio è come se fossero rifatte.Ne avevo una grande da piccola e udivo ilrumore del mare..

Temo che le conchiglie nei negozi siano di lumache vive. Mi piace solo raccogliere le conchiglie che l'animale ha lasciato. Grazie a Dio per Google Translate!
