- Once again, it was a long drive up the coast, but I KNEW the shells would be amazing after all the wind and rain we've had lately!! There were so many shells on the beach, I was in heaven! I wish I had more time to spend there, because wow, there is a lot to find at Dundowran Beach!
Let me know which ones were your favourites ;D and if you enjoyed this and want to see more shell finding videos, I'd appreciate a like or a comment. I read all of them and try to reply when I can. You have no idea how much of a smile you guys put on my face. Thanks everyone!

I didn't even realise that Hervey Bay and it's surrounding beaches had such lovely seashells until I saw "Shellcade Shelling Down Under" - I admire him a lot, and you can also check out his amazing videos here:

It’s so neat that your shells resemble the ones I get here too. That propeller arc is awesome!
G'day Sharmon 👋🏻🏖️ I do find myself making comparisons to Florida seashells while I'm at this beach 😲 maybe it has something to do with the gentle waves here compared to the hard crashing waves around the rock pools closer to home? Maybe I'm wrong, but I always think that Florida pleasant waves 🌊 As for the propeller arcs, I don't really know what to compare them to 🤔 They're such an oddball! Thank you so much for watching the adventure today 🥰
My favorite for today is that gorgeous maroon moon snail with the black swirl! I love moon snails! Thanks and have a good day!
G'day Cynthia 👋🏻🐚 Oh my gosh, I totally agree; that maroon and black-swirled moon snail is just stunning and so visually interesting 🤩 I think it was my overall favourite too. It was such an exciting day to see all the shells here 🐚 Thank you so much for coming along on the adventure 🥰
Really love the video!!
G'day Alvin 👋🏻🐚 Thank you so much, I'm glad you enjoyed the shells in this one 🤩
Love the finds today 😂❤😂
G'day Judi 👋🏻🐚 Hehe, thank you so much! I was absolutely thrilled with my haul from Hervey Bay this time 🤩 Thank you so much for watching 🥰
Ahhh, ummm, ahhh… sweet swirly seashells!!! 🐚🐚🐚 So many really cool shells today! ❤️ Can’t choose a favorite today. 🤔 Loved the cambells strombus and the dog whelks. 🐶 And I really liked those telescope shells! I would be bringing home such a heavy bucket of shells!!! 🪣🪣🪣 😂 Sure wish my shell hunting in Navarre had been more successful. When I get around to cleaning them I’ll send you pics. Another wonderful video!!! 🎉 Thank you Maddie! 🥰🥰🥰
G'day Pam 👋🏻💖 Sweet swirly seashells, if you think this was a great adventure, just wait for the next episode where I walk the opposite way down the beach 🏖️🐌 but seriously, there were some amazing shells in this video; the Telescope Snails were very new and interesting to me 🐚! Oh no Pam, after saying all that, I feel a bit guilty to hear that you didn't have much luck at Navarre 😭 I hope you at least took home a bucket of goodies! I bet if I was there, I would have gone nuts and gotten all the boring ones off the beach, like, 100 Florida Fighting Conches!! I can't wait to see which treasures you've brought home with you, be sure to send me a message whenever 😍 Thank you so much, and for coming along on another adventure 🥰
Cool. Colourful moonsnail. Love those. And always like to find joined shells. That one is amazing. So lucky
G'day Belix 👋🏻💖 There were some really colourful moon snails today!! One of them even looked just like the Gaudi Nauticas that people find in Florida 🤩 there were so many exciting shells today, and the joined leafy oyster was extra exciting too!! Thank you so much for watching 🥰
Oh! For most people that don't know! The pin shells were used to make buttons. Pull it up and check it out. 😊
Love the Wells find and the chunky boys! As you call them 😂 enjoy!
G'day Jessica 👋🏻🐚 The whelks were lovely today; both the dog whelks and the mangrove whelks, I think 🤩 the chunky boys were the best; they were a totally unexpected find!! I guess I was feeling brave today; I don't think I looked that close to the mangrove trunks before this trip? The Telescope Snail Shells were all right up against the trunks, so I guess that's just they're favourite place to live?? Anyhoo! Thanks for joining me on this adventure today 🥰
Even though there are plenty of them, I really like those colourful conical moon snails.
G'day Reet 👋🏻💖 Oh my goodness, I was really spoiled with those Conical Moon Snails today... I don't remember finding them that fresh and shiny on my previous trips!! They were always a bit faded before, so yes, these ones are excellent!! Definitely with being a favourite shell today 🐚 Thank you so much for joining me today 🥰
Good morning, Maddie
The Venus clams are cool. The leafy oyster shell was so very nice today. The stranger shell is very unique. The telescope shells are Awsome. The arch shells are so very different. The mud welke is very nice. The strombus is beautiful. Love the top shells, rhe jungle she was unique as well, the moon snails have some beautiful colors. Like the limpit. The dog welkes are just too cute. The mangrove welke, the merax are so cool. Love the last moon snail very much. To many favorites. Thank you again for another wonderful shelling video. Have a wonderful day Maddie
G'day Toni 👋🏻💖 You are really remembering those names!!! There was honestly so much to love at Hervey Bay this time; there was a little more variety than I had previously found, too! Did you end up being able to choose a single favourite? I mean, I couldn't even decide on a favourite!!! The Whelks are so cute, but the moon snails, and then the Campbell's Strombus 🤩 I think that interesting Sordid Moon Snail might have been my favourite. This was a big day of shell finds; thank you so much for watching this longer length episode today 🐚❤️ and I see you're able to comment again 😉 you must have found the solution. Thank you for being here for another big Hervey Bay adventure 🥰
I am trying to get it down to a few favorites. There are just so many beautiful shells. I want to thank you again for your time and helping to relax during your videos. Hope you have a wonderful day Maddie
Hey Maddie!! Great walk today. Loved all the finds❤ The ones that stood out the most to me though were the Double Banded Moon Snail. The Campbells Strombus. The Honorable Mention goes to the Nutmegs. Safe Travels my friend! Talk Soon! ❤
G'day Mimi 👋🏻💖 I'm so pleased that you enjoyed the trip to Hervey Bay today 🐚🤩 there was a lot of great shells!! Oh goodness, that double banded moon snail and stombus were fantastic shells; they really stood out from the rest 🐚✨ I'm thrilled that you liked them and the Nutmegs too! Thank you so much for watching 🥰
WOW
G'day Erik 👋🏻🐚 Hehe, I'm glad you enjoyed the shelling adventure 🤩 Thanks for watching 🥰
Good evening, Maddie. Beautiful beach with a lot of wonderful shells 🐚 😊.
G'day Nikoleta 👋🏻💖 There were so many wonderful shells out there today 🐚😍 I'm so pleased you enjoyed them and the beach 🏖️ thank you so much for coming along on another adventure 🥰
@@SandCoffeeRocksyou are welcome Maddie 😊.
Another fantastic shell day. I do love the Campbell strombus.Such a crazy day to look out and see the vast amount of shells laying before you on the beach. Thanks for another great day!! 🥰🐕🇺🇸
G'day Guadalupe 👋🏻💖 It was a stunning day; the first nice day in a week or so because of the rain and winds. The shells that washed up really blew my mind, it was a really fantastic trip. I'm so pleased that you loved the Campbell's Strombus 🤩 it's a lovely shell. I actually found a LIVE one in the next episode (I left it behind of course) but wow, it's shell was fantastic 😍 I can't wait to show it to you next time. Thank you so much for joining these adventures 🥰
Hello from south Georgia! Thank U for the adventure and great shelling and beautiful 1s as well. U make Ur video so exciting, makes me want 2 go and it's been a minute since I've been 2 the beach but I have lots and make chimes with them. What you call a lefty shell, over here we call the either, kittens paw, lions paw or cats claw. Thank U so much for getting me away for a few minutes. Very exciting! Continue having fun and stay safe. God bless! 🥰
G'day Sandy 👋🏻🌊 Hello to you on the other side of the world 🌎 Oh wow, I'm glad that my videos give your the itch to travel to your closest beach 🏖️ I feel a shelling video should make you want to get out there and participate too! Oh wow, so you make wind chimes with your shells, I bet they are all stunning 🐚❤️🐚 Oh, so the Leafy Oyster, it's actually a different species than the kittens paws and lions paw shells, so it naturally has a different name 😉 the amount of different shell species in the world is just crazy, I think it's over 50,000 unique species? Thank you so much for watching the exciting adventure, I hope you have a fantastic day as well 🥰
Super haul today! Look at all those colorful moonsnails! (Drool) they are all fantastic! Great variety❤
Good morning Maddie,
What a great day at the beach. All the shells are so lovely. I enjoyed your beach adventures very much. Hope you have a wonderful week Maddie. I look forward to your next adventure. Love the moon shells!!!
See you next Sunday,
Katherine
🥰🥰🥰
G'day LuAnn 👋🏻🐚 it was an absolutely SUPER day, I almost went back the next day too, the 5 hour round trip in the car be damned! But, ahh, it really is a long way to go haha 😆 but it's wonderful when the long car trip is well rewarded 😍 the colourful Sordid and Bladder Moon Snails at half the reason I keep going back 🤣 I'm so pleased that you like them as well. Thank you so much for watching 🥰
G'day Katherine 👋🏻🐚 It was a fantastic day at the beach 😀🏖️ Thank you for coming along to enjoy these adventures 🐚 I hope you have a fantastic weekend as well 🥰
Hi Maddie, you definitely got some good shells there. My favourite was the turkey wing, I love the colours and texture and it really looks like a turkey wing too! 😄xxx
G'day Alison 👋🏻❤️ Hehe, the week of rain rewarded me with some epic shell finds today 🤩 Oh wow, the Turkey Wing was the favourite this time 🐚😍 it was a really stunning one; I usually find them really roughed up and/faded, so this one was pretty cool 😎 I shouldn't have hidden it in the final shell display, but that's just how it ended up being placed 😆 anyway! Thank you so much for watching this big adventure 🥰
WowWee Maddie, so so many great shells today, absolutely
Terrific 💯 I can't type enough to describe all the beauties. Too old😊 the Strombous especially, moon snails, telescoping thingies, oysters were all cool. Maddie can you show us a whole propeller oyster shell, plz, sometime maybe? 🤪🤩🤭😇TY
G'day Jk 👋🏻❤️ Hehe, I was really spoiled on this trip; all the bad weather had me stuck inside for a week, but it was worth it for days like this!! I'm so pleased that you enjoyed seeing the Strombus, moon snails, and new Telescope Shell 🐚 they were all so cool! Thank you so, so much for joining this big adventure today 🥰 Oh, a joined Propeller Arc?? I have actually have just one of them, which I found about 4 weeks ago... It was in this video if you want to look around for it in there? It's a pretty cool one, it has a Jewel box attached to it as well: ua-cam.com/video/xowWGywClXU/v-deo.html
Hey Maddie! Too many wonderful shells to choose a favourite! Maybe the Venus clam or the telescope snail? Glad you had such a wonderful adventure 🐚
G'day Mary 👋🏻❤️ I know, there were so many stand-outs shells in this lot, it was really too hard to choose just one favourite 🤩 the little Flinder's Venuses and the Telescope Shells are two lovely species to add to my collection though 🐚😍 it was a great trip, so thank you so much for joining me on it today 🥰
Good morning, Maddie. I love the nerite and the moon snails (all of them).
G'day Carma 👋🏻🐚 Oh wow 😳 you liked the Nerite??!! I wasn't sure if I was being weird by liking it so much! It really is a mystery to me: I have no idea what it is, too 🤔 but gosh, the moon snails were fantastic as well 🤩 I think there will be more great ones in the next video too 😉 Thank you so much for watching 🥰
Just discovered you :D so excited to binge watch all the shell videos :D
G’day Amz 👋🏻🐚 Oh my goodness, thank you for discovering me 🤩 I always tell people to take my videos in moderation… I’m quite excitable!! Have fun with the binging 😉 I recommend, hmmm, NOT starting at the start 😂 I think I’ve come a long way since then! Maybe that’s just me cringing at my younger self 🤣 I definitely liked episode 100 and onwards more! Thanks for watching 🥰
Hi Maddie, I can feel your excitement seeing so many lovely shells on the beach. I like the Venus clams, nutmegs and Strange's scallops very much. The others are very special too. Thanks for another wonderful video.
G'day Florence 👋🏻💖 The beach was amazing on this day, I don't think anyone else goes shelling there (or if they do, I don't see them)! Oh wow, the Flinder's Venuses are more popular than I thought! The Nutmegs are a big favourite of mine too, and the Strange's Scallops are so interesting 🤩 I'm so pleased that you enjoyed all the shells from this big adventure to Hervey Bay 🏖️ Thank you, once again, for coming along with me 🥰
The wing-like things on scallops are called auricles. I liked the leafy oysters and the telescope shells.
G'day Cathy 👋🏻❤️ Oh wow!!! I was secretly hoping that someone would clue me in ☺️ so they are called Auricles? I'll try to remember that next time, I might pass on some knowledge to the watchers 😜 Thank you so much Cathy, and for joining the adventure today 🥰
Hi Maddie, my favourite shell was ‘all of them’. I found some black and purple nerite shells as well as cream nerite shells at Point Cartwright. The nerite you found wasn’t a land snail. Thanks for sharing. I really enjoyed watching this video. Alexander.
G'day Alexander 👋🏻💖 Wow, I must have found some great ones if they were all worthy of being the favourite 🤩 Oh wow, you found Nerites at Point Cartwright?! There are some really cool ones there 😉 Maybe the cream Nerites were Pleated Nerites?? Thank you so much for coming along with me on this big Hervey Bay adventure 🥰 I had load of fun sharing it with you 🐚
I don't remember if i already put my comment in this video or not yet,
I really enjoying your videos,even the old ones
On this video of courseeee my fav still the moonsnails ❤
The 2nd is the leafy oyster 🦪,look sooo cool
The 3rd the strange's scallop
I wish i was there to make my shell bag overloaded 😂
G'day Nelly 👋🏻💖 Hehe, I did check my comment record and no; no comment on this video, but plenty on so many others 😉 Thank you so, so much for all of your wonderful comments!! I'm glad that you like this older video...it really surprises me that that one in particular is actually quite popular as opposed to any number of other Hervey Bay ones 😲 the Leafy Oyster was lovely in this one, wasn't it! The moon snails 🐌 of course, I know they are your favourite 😁 but wow, the Strange's Scallop as well!!! Aww Nelly, I wish you were here to collect a bunch of these beauties as well. Thank you for watching, and thanks again for all of your wonderful comments 🥰💖🐚
Soooo many shells! My favourite today was almost the Strange's scallop, but then came those telescope snails. I can't stop dreaming of a whole bunch of the telescope snails standing top down in sand like a snail forest. 😂. Oh! Also live the Australian jingle and arc (aka turkey wing).
*love, not live... 🙈
Hehe 😁😉
G'day Oceanluvn Gal 👋🏻🐚💖 Oh wow, the Strange's Scallop was nearly the top pick 😮 colour me a little surprised... Or maybe I'm just used to people liking the moon snails from here 🐌🤣 Wow, those Telescope Shells were really cool, right??! Dang, maybe next time I'll put them upside down 👇😆 I'm so pleased you liked them, and the bivalves!! The Jingles and Turkey Wings from Hervey Bay are always stunning! Thank you so much for coming along for this big adventure 🥰
Hi Maddie
I really like the variety of colourful Moon shells that you have found and the telescope snails are really neat.
While you have been up Harvey Bay we have had a couple of days at Coolum Beach and boy did it blow and rain not good for shelling as the rock were full of sand or sea foam.
G'day Aussie Dirt Digger 👋🏻🪙💖 Awwwww NOOO!!! Dang, your trip to the coast was last week amidst all the wet weather 😱 that's some awful timing. Umm, at least you had the beach to yourself 🤣?? Last week was so wet and windy and rough, I stayed inside the whole time. I hope you got to enjoy some other parts of Coolum and the Sunshine Coast away from the beach. If I had've know you were in the area, I would have brought a long some shell souvenirs for you! Hopefully the weather will be much better the next time you visit... winter is supposed to be the best time go find seashell around here! Thank you for watching the big Hervey Bay adventure 🥰 maybe you'll try here next; no rocks to slip on, though it's perhaps not as beautiful as the sunshine coast in my biased opinion 😆
Awsome shells! I live on landlocked country.😢
G'day Ginger 👋🏻🐚 Aww no!! I can't even imagine living like that 😦 I hope you have some fantastic forests, mountains, or other beautiful scenery to make up for it 🏔️🌄🌲 Thank you so much for coming along to see the seashells today 🥰
Shells
G'day Aisha 👋🏻🐚 Hehe, yep, I sure found a bunch of great ones!! Thank you so much for watching 🥰
Love your excitement! The cone shells are great. Would love to send you shells. Let me know.
G'day Jan 👋🏻🐚 Thank you, this beach was extra exciting today with all of the fabulous shells laying about! The new Telescope shells were extra amazing as well! Whoa, send me shells? Thank you, but it's actually a bit costly to do that, so I always worry for whoever wishes to do that; it's why I'm so grateful to someone like Trudy; whose box I opened the other day. If you think it's something you're able to do, and still want to do that, I would be thrilled to see what kinds of shells you'd send me! If you send me a private message on my Facebook page (link in my video description), we can talk more about it 🤔 Thank you so much for watching, Jan 🥰
Morning Maddie, I have 3 favorites and here we go #1 is the 2nd strange's scallop #2 is the 2nd dubble banded sand snail and the last one is the first bmgray sordid moom. I want to thank you for letting me know the name of a shell you found( Grooved mangrove snail)🐚🐚❤. I have of those snails that i was going to send you. I found those at good will thrift store😊😊. Love to you and ninja 🐈🐈. You are one of the best🥇🥇shellers out there❤❤. See you in the next video
G'day Sheila 👋🏻💖 Wow, three favorites 🤩 I think you did better than me, I had about 5 or 6 favs!! Wow, I forgot about the second Strange's Scallop, it was a really cool one 😎 The really colourful Double Banded Sand Snail 🐌 was a really lovely surprise, but the final Sordid Moon snail, wow!! I love your picks for the favourites!! Ohhhh you found some Grooved Mangrove Snails in the thrift store??!! Wow, maybe they are collectable in mangroves in the US too?! Wowsers! I feel a little silly for mis-identifying them before, but that's not unusual for me 🤣 Oh my goodness Sheila thank you, but you don't have to send me anything; just enjoy your wonderful collection! If you are serious about it though, we can always chat about it on my Facebook or in an email. I just love seeing you in the comments more than anything else; you've been a constant support on ever video pretty much since the very beginning ❤️ Thank you so much for always joining the shelling adventures 🥰
@@SandCoffeeRocks I would really love to send you some the California ( from half moon bay and the San Francisco bay). Have a great day and see y oi u soon
I'm not going to lie, that sounds really exciting 😲 All right, if you're serious about it, you can contact me on Facebook or email: the links to them are in the "About" section on my UA-cam channel 🤔 Thank you so much Sheila ❤️
He was going through the same as last week with seashell
G'day Shaira 👋🏻🏖️ Thank you so much for watching 🥰 I'm not sure if your comments was intended for this video, but I appreciate it all the same 👍🏻
telescope shell
G'day Grace 👋🏻🐚 Hehe, those new Telescope Shells were pretty cool 😎 it's always a lot of fun to find a new type of shell, the Chonky Bois are a great one! Thank you so much for watching 🥰
Can I find seashells like this is the Caspian sea?
G'day again, Alvin 👋🏻🐌 Oh wow, do you live near the Caspian Sea? I will be honest with you; I know nothing about shells from the Caspian Sea 😅 I've never heard of any shell species that come from there, either. After a little bit of Googling, I think you can find mostly clam and mussel shells, and maybe a few small gastropods. I'm not sure how correct that is, but some places will apparently have shells to collect...but no, it doesn't look like you'll find shells like the ones I got here in Australia.
@@SandCoffeeRocks I think it's because the Caspian sea does not flow into any ocean. I really want to collect shells like those you found one day!!
@@sirabbutulkasi That’s true; the Caspian Sea is unfortunately landlocked… the snail/shell species that I find might not have been able to migrate to your sea because there isn’t a pathway, perhaps 🤔 I hope that you can one day visit a place with many shells to find 🤞🏼
I
Thanks for watching 🥰
