What is Florida shelling like in summer? Dodging rain and heat to find low tide treasures! 

In this crazy world, a beach walk (real or virtual) is what we all need to take away the stress! Thanks

Hello, everyone! We really need this wonderful distraction tonight. Yes, dear Sharmon, let's all go to the beach! Wow! A great shelling day for high summer! Good for you, girl! Much love to you all! The Mermaid

I know its very common but that coppery jingle is amazing

we love your dry sense of humor lol. I click so fast when you upload a video. I too live in south west Florida (5 years now) and you've helped me identify shells. so thank you.

Another GREAT day at the Beach, all thanks to you, Shar!! I appreciate getting away. It got so bad that I had to Google earth just to walk along the beach of Sanibel. I just told my hubby last night I needed out of here and then I see your video today! I love your cheerful spirit!! No one could be unhappy hearing the joy in your heart. Thank you so much, Beach Friend!! See you next Sunday! 🏖🐚♥

Well someone had an AWESOME time! Love love love those grey sand dollars, the patterns remind me of giraffes…. Also loved that pink spiney jewel box, that was really nice. Lovely video. Hugs and stay safe xx

Thank you for taking me along on your adventure. I'm always a little sad when they end. 😢🥰

That calico scallop ♥♥♥♥. Just amazing.

You're the best sheller ever!!!!!!

I so look forward to my Sunday evening beach walks 😊

You are so peaceful. After watching hing turmoil I always come to watch you. Thank you.

Thank you, this jaunt felt like just the right walk today. My favorite finds were the "alligator" patterned sand dollars and the spiny jewel box that was not white! ... and the pretty rose petals .. and ...

I thank you every week for "Beach Time!" I swear, I can feel my blood pressure drop 20 points during that half-minute. You sure found some treasures today! That big lightning whelk was super colorful, especially for such a large one. Also, I'm thinking a mostly-golden olive might be a more rare varient than an entirely golden one. Thanks for taking us along on another great shell hunt!

Thank-you for taking us past the tennis club. Our favorite spot. Love that spot.

Another wonderful Sunday night special with Sharmon. Thanks as always, and I wanted to let you know that shell pile where near my daughters where we found so many wonderful shells is gone. Completely gone. Some of it was made to cover the ground area, but they took it away.😢 I am so glad you are careful with tracking lightening. I have had a few experiences that have left me phobic. Looking forward to your East Coast trip.❣️🦋❣️🐢🐚🐚🐚🌊🪸🌈☀️🥰

Thank You Sharmon for another lovely day at the Beach. Fort Myers Beach is great for finding shells, that was where I found a lot last time I was there, too many years ago. I also went to Sanibel at that time. I went through my collection recently and thanks to you I can name some of the shells I picked up. It is always a pleasure to shell with you !! 😊

Copper/gold jingle is my favorite!

Hello. Good Evening 🐚🐚Happy Shelling Sunday 🐚🐚

Oh so wonderful as usual! I don't think I can express how much your beach walks help me unwind, relax and relieve some of the stresses of my day/week. So from my somewhat land-locked state of Wisconsin...thank you!

Hi fellow shellers out there! 👋🏼 Gorgeous Crown Conch Sharman! That dark brown juvenile Fighting Conch is really nice! Awesome color and patterns! I love the little Top Shells! Found alot in n Marco! Thanks for taking us along with you! TTFN 👋🏼 ❤

Thank you Sharmon, lovely walk on the beach. Beautiful shells and quite a few for a July walk, of course you always seem to find the shells. I wish I could meet you on the East coast this week but my schedules full of doctor visits to get results from biopsies and schedule a surgery or two. Meeting you at the beach sure sounds like more fun!

I look forward to your video every week! I'm even watching all of the old ones I had not seen. You had a spectacular day at the beach this day!

My son and I live in Naples and my girlfriend lives in Fort Myers. We love watching your content. Like you, we’re avid shellers taking full advantage of our local beaches. We’ve come to really enjoy FMB but of course Sanibel is our hands down local favorite. Because of you we learned of the shell tours down in Goodland and took one last summer. It’s been nice watching your videos and the three of us look forward to more great content in the future.

I was inspired by your ability to find the tiniest of shells and finally sat still long enough to look through the broken pieces of stuff that come up in our rake ~ and finally found some tinies, including a tiny lightning welk! 😄 You have even helped to inspire my husband ~ he operates the rake 😁

Wow! I would love to have almost every shell you found on this trip! Such happy finds! And that cute little sand dollar? Awww 🥹

Geez, I’m only 5 minutes in and WOW! You definitely found the sweet spot, so much fun and so many beautiful shells..thanks for the beach walk Sharmon..❤🐚

THANK YOU SOOO VERY MUCH for sharing your walks with us! Haven't been able to go to the beach for TEN YEARS now. Oh HOW I LOVE THE BEACH/SHELLING!! THAT'S my idea of a great Vaca. LOVE the beach early in the morning. I've learned so much watching your vids. Thought I was the only person who loves teeny tiny whole shells. Just know this old land locked gal is GRATEFUL! Keep up the good work.🏖️🌅

Thank you Sharmon I needed to watch something happy tonight and here you are !

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE click the "Thumbs Up" button if you like Shar's Content!! It only takes a second and it costs you NOTHING!!! It helps Shar create more content for YOU to ENJOY!! Just do it, Beach Friends.... THANK YOU!!

Thank you for this adventurous walk. So glad you were safe.. Nice collection of shells.

Fabulous day on the beach! You found some beautiful treasures. Many thanks for taking us along, Sharmon 😊 🐚 ⛱️ ❤

Always looking forward for our Sunday night beach time ! This is my favourite time of the week and I am so happy to see all the beautiful shells and critters you find. My favourites are olives and juvenile fighting conches but I love them all. Thank you so much for sharing your lovely beach adventure with us ! ☀️🏖️🐚😎🩵

Thank you again ! Always a Good day at the Beach. Even if it rains ! Looking forward to next week's walk !!

Thankful for your weekly videos ❤ yes definitely needed this

Hi, I watch you every Sunday night and look so forward to joining you on your adventures. I live in Canada in Ontario which is in the middle of Canada and very far from the ocean… so… your weekly videos are a treat for someone who truly believes the stork dropped me off either to late or too soon!!! Question… how do the drills make holes in the other shells? Just wondering… Thank you for taking me along on your scrounge each week, I so look forward to your videos. Take care of you.

What a great day at the beach! Love all the sand dollars and the lightening whelks!

Girlllll, you have no idea how much I needed this video after the weekend I've had! ❤

Another lovely walk. Thank you Sharman. The shells are gorgeous!🐚

When I lived in Florida, I loved searching for the smaller Sand Dollars. To keep them intact I had either a baby food jar or a larger prescription pill bottle and cap. Worked great! Barely ever had one break!

OMG….that beautiful beautiful lettered olive!

I feel like a FMB local because of your fabulous videos, the beach seems as familiar as an old friend. Thank you for that. Nice haul, especially considering it’s high summer. The sand dollars are gorgeous.

Sharmon, thanks again for sharing such a nice adventure. I'm busy with my puppy so I have to be brief. Your finds that were my favs were that big lightning whelk, the gold colored olives, the sand dollars with those beautiful patterns and that odd moon snail shell. Have yourself a wonderful week!

Beautiful, relaxing walk on the beach with you again today Sharmon. I never get tired of our time together😊. That Lightening Well is fantastic! But today, I think my favorites were the "Alligator" Sand Dollars. Come to think of it (to tell you the truth), as long as we take our walk on the beach....any shell is fine with me!!😂

A couple things - if you will put a couple of paper towels in your delicates box, things won’t slop around as much, and you can even use the corner of one of them to wrap your tiny sand dollars in. The other thing is, when you’re looking at an olive shell (or any gastropod) instead of referring to one end of it as the bottom, refer to that end as the posterior end and the Other end, where the siphon canal protrudes, as the anterior end, it better describes the shell. Really enjoyed your video.

Oh my, what an overall wonderful beach walk!!! I love when you can get a variety of treasures from the sea ❤🎉❤. The spotted sand dollars give me the heebie jeebies. They look diseased. The weather was interesting to WATCH ALSO. Glad you went today!!!!

Hey Sharman! Love your eye for color, and I have a weakness for Florida Fighting Conch as well! Get safe, and happy shelling!

Very good video!❤ Nice finds, especially for the summer 😅!

I enjoy our Sunday night. I always look forward to our time together.

Wow such a wonderful shelling day! Esp for summer ❤ that lightning welk-wow

I stay at EBTC when I come down .They are the triple towers with blue roofline.I found the best shells at a VERY low tide on July 2nd.

Beautiful shells! Beautiful ocean! Thank you!

I’m game, let’s go!

Went to Normandie, France 🇫🇷for a D-Day special trip by coach. I walked breefly on the Utah and Omaha beaches. Looked for seashells and found some Banded Wedge shells (purple inside!), a Portuguese Oyster, a Razor shell and a lots of Slipper Limpets! Have glued the Banded Wedges and some of the Slipper Limpets onto three pictureframes. Now I just have to print out some pictures I took there and frame them in my shell frames!😅 Thank you for sharing your finds, Sharmon! Wow! What great finds you had! 🐚 Bye from 🇸🇪🌤

Thank you SO much for this! Used to live in NJ, haven’t been to the beach in over 20 years! I thoroughly enjoyed every minute, and subscribed! ❤

Great finds

Wonderful, you found alot of beautiful shells. I didn't think you would find so many because you said finding shells in summer is slim pickings.😅 The copper jingle is my favorite, simple, but beautiful in colour and shape, and the pinky spiny jewel box was a great find, and of course the giraffe patterned sand dollars. Shapes, colours, patterns. Wow. Nature is incredible. Glad you made it and didn't get drenched in the rain and found a way to navigate around those rocks jutting out. Thanks for another wonderful virtual shelling expidition. 🌊⛱️

Thanks again for a fun trip to the beach!

Wow that coppery gingle was a hefty one. I’ve never seen one so heavy. You’re right to avoid lightning. I’m not so wise. At least I wasn’t at 8years old, while dancing in the rain when my smarter friends found shelter. Suddenly I was two feet in the air with a lightning bolt between my arms. Time stood still. I was okay but I’ve always had little trouble with the left side of my body.

So great to share your beach walk🤩

This was a great video. What a variety of shells, great finds. Thank you for the adventure.

Nice haul. I love those sand dollars and nice lightning whelks! Good day of shelling

I never get tired of your videos! I wish I had a nice shelling beach to go to and just get away from people sometimes. Thanks for taking us along! It was such a great haul today! ❤ Question, near the end, when you show the shark eye, is that a glass table top with compartments?

That is a great haul!! I was going to ask you to see the table but I saw that lovely thing in the background! Love it! Love all the shells. Hope your walks went well!! 4 years, no wonder I feel like I have been knowing you a long time. LOL Have a great week and see you Sunday! XOXO

I'm missing my condo on the beach in Naples. I just sold it in February.

Greetings from Redondo Beach 🇺🇸🇺🇸 Beautiful beach 🏖

A jar full of those hinged Crossbar Venus Clams would be really nice. Edit: East Coast... Conus delesserti. Nodipecten fragosus.... orange one. hinged. and mint.

Amazing shells 🐚 🥰

Hi Sharmon! We haven’t forgotten you! Enjoy your content and would love to get you up to Cayo Costa and maybe Cabbage Key or Useppa! Your choice! Talk soon!

Dear Sharmon, What an amazing time at the beach! The shells you've found are incredible!❤ There are so many gorgeous shells that it is difficult to pick a favourite. I think that very pointy lettered olive and the pink spiney jewelbox are my favourites. But it's a close call! Unfortunately, again, no albino lettered olive. They really are a needle in a haystack. It's easier to find a junonia. I really, really hope you will find it once day. And we can witness your joy and happiness after you find it. We'll have a big online celebration!🍾🎉 I really love this piece of Fort Meyers beach. The shelling is almost all the time fantastic. I'm glad that there was no thunderstorm in your part of the coast. I know you are very careful. But the idea that you had to shelter in that little wooden gazebo (or whatever it was) wasn't so appealing to me. Thank goodness it was only rain! The tinies are so cute. You should put them in a little pendant locker and use it as a necklace. I have one with tiny pieces of seaglass. I bought it from the Scottish Mudlarks. It's so stunning. I get a lot of compliments when people see it. So I know such a necklace with tiny shells will be amazing, too! Well, my dear friend, Thank you so much for taking us with you on this wonderful beach walk. Letting us enjoy all the beautiful finds and give us some beach time. 🩵 I hope you have a wonderful week, filled with sunshine, less rain, amazing finds, and, of course, lots of joy and happiness. Big hug and lots of love, xoxo ❤, Ilona

Thanks for the beach walk!

I live in Ocean Isle Beach NC. Our Beach faces the South which is in itself is unusual. We have had a lot of seaweed lately due to a constant south wind.

Amazing Lighting Welk!

Hi Sharmon, I just found out from another site that some seashells glow under UV light, it's amazing to see. Love love your video's thanks for taking us with you xx

Fabulous wow.....❤ Thanks so much for sharing

The best time to look for shells on the beach is after a storm.

I watch another RU-vidr he is from Europe, not sure if it Scotland or Ireland…..ssshhhh don’t tell him!!! His channel is, “The Fish Locker”!!! He said he has a rule and it’s like a movement in his area. It’s called the TAKE 5 movement. Every time you go to the beach you take 5! 5 pieces of trash, 5 pounds what ever you can take 5 of!!!!!

I wanted to thank you for another wonderful video and let you know how much I appreciated you showing the blue dot (your location) on the Arial maps. I was way off in my mind of where I assumed you were. I'd love if you did that more often. Thank you so much!!! ❤

Really nice shells fun trip thank you 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩💖💖💖💖

Maybe you discovered a new shell species? A Juvenile Florida Alphabet Fighting Conch! 😉

I'm so excited. My plans to go to Sanibel in Dec. 2022 were upended by Hurricane Ian, BUT...I have a friend moving to Florida this fall and I've been invited to visit!! Yay!! Do I know where she's going to live? No, not yet...I think it's on the east coast. But it's closer to your beaches than Washington State where I live. I think I'll borrow your word: Squeee!!!

I like your new very colourful watch!

I would say those are some pretty nice shells you found there, nothing wrong with the angel wings though, super nice haul❤

Oh if you were to sell my Texas shell 😮😂❤

This is awesome! Thanks so much!!! ❤❤❤

Great finds!! I hope you can one day put a few little collections of just lettered olives in your Etsy shop! Hint hint lol 😆❤️

Nice to see fort Myers beach getting back hopefully to normal. Awesome shells.

That cross bar venus was pretty. Can you park near those buildings you showed us? So many beautiful shells. I can't get over those sand dollars. lol. And the sunray venus with the drill hole, I would make that a Christmas ornament. Love those Olives.

My dear, that is NOT a lot of seaweed! Lol You should see the piles we get up here!!😁 I vote baby apple murex. Beautiful little spiny JB!! X 2! Nice LW too! I really like the half and half olives like that 1 you found. They're unique. You always do so well at FMB! I guess the trick is going all the way to the south end. With all the restoration still going on, is the parking keeping people away? There are plenty of people up here especially in the middle of the day like that. I got grounded this past week with COVID... Hope to see the beach this week. Thanks Sharmon! xxoo

Ok Sharmon! Spill the beans on the shadowbox table! Did you make it yourself? It's gorgeous and perfect! Thank you for sharing your shelling adventures!

Slow down when you show the haul, I'm trying to learn. Love your channel!

Can you get sheets of bubble wrap to where you can layer in your container? That way you save your delicates.

I hate living in the midwest. We have nothing like this!

Do you ever go to Vanderbilt/Bonita beach? We used to rent there. My sister has a condo just south of the ritz.

19:13 top middle of screen, white olive.

Thank you so much for making these wonderful videos!! I have learned so much from you during the past few years! So can you tell me where the ‘spot’ is on Fort Myers Beach?

Hi!! Do you have tips on finding sand dollars? They are my favorite. I’ve only found one tiny one dead. I go to fort myers beach mostly mid/South Island. Tia!!

What a wonderful video and SO informative! I stumbled on your site a few months ago because I'm a treasure hunter (and RU-vidr) and was heading to the west coast to do some metal detecting. My other half (my better half) is more of a sheller while I'm using the hardware to look for other kinds of treasures. Either way, we make it to the beach very often. I'm anxious to see what you find on the east coast. I'm over here in the Palm Beaches and have found a few location near Hutchinson Island and a bit further north for shelling. Where are you heading to? Thanks for the videos and keep them coming!

Where is the best place to get a shell identification? I found a really nice looking one that i thought was a juvenile Florida fighting conch but it's not quite the same. I did a Google photo search and it said it's a shell from the East Indian ocean 😮

How do you tell the Rose Petal Tallon from a pink Coquina shell?

I've never thought about how these critters "drill" into other shells? How does that work?
