Effective Date: May 20th, 2025

We’re thrilled to guide you on your Florida shelling adventure! Here’s a list to help you come prepared:

Recommended Items:

  • 👜 Shelling Bag (Medium size, mesh preferred – buckets not recommended)

  • 👟 Water Shoes (Optional but helpful on rocky or slippery surfaces)

  • 🧴 Sunscreen

  • 💧 Water Bottle

  • 🍏 Snack

  • 👙 Bathing Suit

  • 🧢 Hat

  • 👕 SPF Long-Sleeve Shirt (Optional, for sun protection)

  • 🧂 Small Lidded Cup or Bottle – Great for tiny or delicate shells (Optional)

  • 📱 Phone or Camera – For capturing your finds!

  • 🧼 Hand Sanitizer or Wipes (Optional)

  • 🎒 Backpack or Small Tote – To carry your essentials

  • 🕶️ Sunglasses

Pro Tips:

  • Check the tide chart! We usually go out during low tide for best finds.

  • Hydrate ahead of time, starting 1-2 days in advance.

  • There will be no shade and no where to sit. We do not suggest bringing chairs or umbrellas, as we will be walking. A handheld umbrella and neck fan is a good second.

  • Bring a positive attitude and a curiosity for nature!
