I tried to find Shell Island on St Croix online and couldn’t find it. Is it a beach right on the island? What other beaches do you recommend? Love your videos!
Its absolutely amazing that you found an Isabella Cowrie AND a Sunrise Shell. I am born/ raised on Kauai (& spending a great deal of time at the beach), I can say you got extraordinarily LUCKY!😊
Just found your channel and enjoying all the places you're taking us. I believe the lumpy oyster is a frond oyster and they're a beautiful reddish color.
As a person from Kauai, I really appreciate you not disclosing the beaches and locations of where you find the shells. Too many people share the locations of very special places and it ruins it for everyone. So thank you for not being one of those people.
Oh cool you go under water!! My first time watching one of your videos and I'll definitely subscribe! My first time seeing Hawaiian shell and the scenery and water are beautiful thanks for sharing 🥰
Absolutely loved the shell finds lovely pace and video could show some shells a bit closer but overall very nice. I would prefer it without music just the sound of the waves would be nice!!❤️
Wow what nice beaches!!!! Shelling in rocks is my favorite things to do! Just amazing beach candy! Thx for this and can’t wait to see your other videos. I just subscribed ❤ All the best!
My husband is bringing me to Hawaii for our 50th wedding anniversary in 2025. I can’t wait to look for shells. 🥰🥰 Do you know if I can bring the shells back to Ohio with me?
@@forestt6121 if I’m not aloud to take them I’ll just take pictures and enjoy them that way. And I’m not a foreigner I’m a United States citizen! And the last time I checked Hawaii is part of the United States!
Maaaan I can’t believe the difference between Kauai and Hawaii. Every time we are on the big island you find primarily pieces of shells because of all the lava. Now I wanna go to Kauai next time we visit.
I love your videos but I do not like it when you pick up a shell to show us that you don’t want to keep and it is thrown down instead of putting it down gently so someone else can found it
Hi, I just subscribed. What a beautiful place and the shells are all stunning. 😍 I do like big old worn shells too. They have character. I'm sitting in cold Germany wishing I could swim where you are and go shell hunting. 😅 We don't have any shells on our beaches on the North Sea and the Baltic Sea. The Baltic Sea is about an hours drive from where we live. The beach is small and stoney here too. It is lovely to see your beautiful beaches and the whole scenery. Thank you for sharing and giving us info about what shells eat, etc. There is just one thing I think would be great. If you could lay out all the shells at the end so that we can see the whole collection after each day. Its nuce to see them all together and quickly run through the names again. It is truly shell gem heaven over there. The snorkeling and turtle at the end was amazing. Waving from Germany. Ciao 👋👋👍💖🐚🐠
Such beautiful treasures!! Especially love your snorkeling segments. That tun shell was nice, and the true tulips, rooster tail!!!😮 wow! Awesome island! Thanks 😊
Love this adventure! Absolutely gorgeous shells. Two of my favs are true tulips and gaudy nauticas. Love the live creatures and underwater . So interesting!! That rooster tail conch was awesome! Thanks for tak8ng us wl9ng!!😊😊
This is definitely one of the best shelling videos. I'm subscribing. My husband and I just went to Oahu in November. I was able to find some shells. What time of the year would you say is the best for finding shells in Hawaii? I would love to go shelling on Kauai. Which beach had the rocks?
Thank you! I go at sunrise to try to find sunrise shells- they're often picked up by other people if you go later in the day. But other than sunrise shells, the best time for beachcombing is generally an hour or so before low tide
