      Not too many people talk about tusk shells. They're common but mostly overlooked. Thanks for watching!

    Oh that banded wentletrap is so cool! How fun to find so many baby ears and tusk shells too. Foot prints might also mean those people that walk the beach but don’t look down. I don’t get them! 😅 I didn’t realize the stout tagelus got so big! And I have never found a keepable sea star. You got lucky!

      I think the keepable sea stars are mostly a post storm thing. This one was in an old high wrack line, clearly left behind the storm that I barely missed by a week and a half (wish these things were predictable for us shellers when we plan our trips months in advance). That wentletrap was probably my favorite find of the day. I've never found one in Florida for some reason but they seem to be fairly common on most good shelling beaches in NC. Thanks so much for watching and commenting! :)

      @@SWFBeachLife I think they make occasional appearances at Lighthouse but I never lucked up. I've heard people literally find them by the hundreds in some areas of northern SC/southern NC, which is incredible!

    Do you ever find sharks teeth at Holden Beach? Great video. 😊❤

      Yes, I've found some shark teeth out there. They're all over when you look for them specifically. Thanks for watching :)

    That channeled whelk was pretty. Too bad the resident was using it...

      It was a very nice shell! They're definitely hard to find not alive.
