- I had the amazing opportunity to meet up with Sharmon from SWF Beach Life, and we shelled Keewaydin Island, Florida together!
I have followed Sharmon's shelling journeys since the beginning days of her channel, and so it was quite the honor to be able to meet up and collaborate together on a shelling video project like this!
If I had known you were a cone magnet I would have begged you for your secret! Thank you so much for meeting me and collaborating on this shell trip. I'm thrilled it was a good shelling day and we both got some great goodies!
This was SOO much fun, Sharmon! Thanks for showing me beautiful Keewaydin Island! 💙
Cone magnet! Hilarious!🤣
You guys should do another collab. Your turn to host maybe somewhere Sharmon has never been? That would be so fun.
Great finds today. Really enjoyed the video.
Two of my favorite people!!!! Such a wonderful idea ❤❤. Many thanks 😊
Beautiful, Beautiful cones !! Envy and jealous, lol .
Wooo! Thank you for watching!
Ahhh!!! This makes me sooo happy! 😁☀️🌊
My favorite shelling TH-camrs! 😭🥰🥰🐚
Thanks so much for watching!
I love your videos you put in so much time editing to get gorgeous scenes that are beautiful to the eye and ear and the shells you collect are great! Loved the colours of this video you captured a paradise. Thank you
I truly appreciate your feedback. Thank you for watching! 💙
My two favorite shelters! Love that you’re keeping Loki in the intro also. The photography in this video is stunning. Love the scans of the piles done slowly so you can actually see them.
She'll be forever in my heart 💙
I LOVE the collaboration! What a fun way to watch two of my favorites on the same beach on the same day at the same time! Thanks for teaming up, y’all!
Thank you so much for watching! 💙
Yes! It was exciting.
Super fun idea Brian, doing a collaboration with Sharmon! Love both you guys. Yall make the best videos. Beautiful shells, love those alphies!!! I can't wait to do Hemmingway to Keewaydin!!
This was SUCH a fun adventure!
Thanks for watching, friend!
💙
Wow! What a great time you two had. Glad you went 2 different directions. Gave us a better idea of the island. And really happy you finally got to meet Sharmon. I have REALLY got to get down to Keewaydin!!!
Hi friend! Thank you very much for watching - it was awesome to meet Sharmon! 💙
What a beautiful surprise to see my favourite youtube shelling friends ! This was an amazing idea and I appreciate both of you so much ! Thank you ❤️🐚🏖️😎
Thank you for watching!
MORE Collabs please!!! Sharon is how I found your channel and I love being able to watch these videos when I'm not at the beach
It would be great to do another collab with her sometime in the future!
Thanks for watching!
Absolutely love the purple in those fighting conchs! I enjoyed both of your beach walks!
Thank you so very much for watching!
"Alright buddy, go do your thing. But maybe have some breakfast. You should always eat your breakfast." This is the sweetest & most wholesome thing EVER! That and "Or should I say, snailing along" gave me a chuckle & Totally made my day. Love your channel💖 You Rock!
I love my little buddies on the beach 💙💙
Thanks for watching!
I watch SWF Beach life on Sunday and was looking for yours to see what you found. The white Florida fighting conch with the purple is amazing, I 've never seen anything like it! Thanks for sharing!
That white conch with purple was literally sitting in the wrack line - dozens of people must have walked past it that morning, lol!
Thanks for watching!
My fav youtube shellers collab! Awesome! So good to see my shelling friends together.
Woooo! Thank you for watching! 💙
You sure did find some beautiful alphabet cones, especially that large dark brown one. You also found some exquisite lace myrex.
For a minute i thought that white fighting conch was an albino which would have really impressed Sharmon. And the fighting conch with golden and white stripes...wow!
Glad you enjoyed yourself; thanks for taking us along! ❤
Sharmon for sure takes the win for best Alphabet Cone, but I'll gladly take the win for most cones, lol!
Thanks for watching!
Love the videos. The collab is awesome. Love the ocean as much as you❤
Thank you so much for watching!
Gorgeous beach and a stunning haul of shells! It is always fun to meet up with other people who share our interests and the shelling community seems to have loved this collaboration between you and Sharmon.
I was super excited to meet Sharmon, and shell with her - it was quite refreshing!
Thank you soo much for watching!
💙
You had a banner day. So fun! The tiny horse conchs (pony conchs?) are so cute. Please be careful when picking up cone shells in the water. All cones are poisonous. I’d hate for you to get stung. I really enjoy your channel. 🤗
Bonjour from Ottawa Canada - Thank you for the lovely beach walk! Its just very interesting to see your preference in shells - your picks and Swf as well. But I must say I thing you had an awsome day - you have a very good eye. Take good care - see you again soon.🎉🎉
Thank you so much for the great feedback, and of course, thank you for watching!
Oh wow! Keewaydin is now on my bucket list! I love that you share with us a wide variety of shells even if they aren't all perfect - I have learned so much from your videos! Thank you!
Thank you so much for your feedback, and for watching this content!
Love the collab!!! You and Sharmon are my favs!!! I’m going to Keewadin on Mon, so excited. ❤ 🐚 🐚 🐚 🐚
Awww, thank you so much for watching!
Hi Brian 👋🏼 Everything you found was absolutely stunning 🤩 I love the sound of all the shells tumbling around in the waves.. I call them Sea Chimes.. 🥰 So calming just like wind chimes😊 My Mom and I are going to be vacationing at Marco Island the first week in June and we are planning on going to Keewaydin. We cannot wait! I hope 🤞🏻 to find an Alphabet Cone, Gaudy Natica & Lace Murex & Rose Murex.. I have yet to find any of those.. Thank you for sharing your adventure with us!! Take Care! TTFN 👋🏼 ❤
I think you'll definitely find an Alphabet Cone, a Gaudy Natica, and a Lace Murex - those shells are pretty common in this area of Florida. The Rose might be a little bit of a challenge, but I wish you the best of luck!
Thanks for watching!
Looks like you were in the cone zone, a great place to be! I'm glad you enjoyed your visit!!
The Cone Zone is an excellent place to be 😃
Thanks for watching!
Brian, I love me some purple shells too! 😄🐚💜
You’ve got some stunning treasures there! Thank you for sharing with us!! And blessing us with this awesome collab!
Love finding purples on the beach!
Thanks for watching!
Two of my favorite channels shelling in one of my bucket list areas...priceless!!! 😊
Awww Thank you for watching!
Wow what a beautiful video! Some of those scenic shots were amazing. Wonderful finds and I bet Sharmon was jealous of your very pretty fighting conchs. Thank you for sharing.
Sharmon and I maintained a healthy appreciation for each others finds, lol. We BOTH found a Rose Murex, which was crazy!
Thanks for watching!
This was awesome! So fun to see you guys together!!
Thank you so much for watching!
It’s so nice to see your collab! The cones! They were everywhere!
Thank you for watching!
WOW all the cones!! So cool!! Awesome that you two got together. The two best in the business of shelling! See you next time.
Best in the business of shelling - I like that!
Thank you for watching!
The only 2 people I subscribe to on TH-cam collaborating. Love it. ❤ Awesome Alphabet Cone finds. As always, thank you for sharing your AMAZING adventures.
Thank you very much for subscribing to this content, and thank you for watching!
That beautiful Orange Blond at 14:10 and then several other orange shells in quick succession .. loving the little Calico too..Thank you soooo much.! ❤️🤗🏝️🐚
Oh yeah, Fighting Conch's in extreme SW Florida can get super orange-y - I love it!
Thanks for watching!

I have to tell you Brian. I absolutely love your channel. I also travel the world and go sea shelling. It’s my passion. I used to be a professional poker player, but I retired when I got married and now me and my wife go shelling all over the world. It’s something I really enjoy and I can tell that it’s something you really enjoy as well. I love this collaboration video you did with our friend in Florida. She is such a sweet lady. If you ever get a chance, hit me up and we’ll go shelling together sometime.
In the meantime, keep those videos coming!
I love to follow your journey. 😎
Hi friend! I truly appreciate your great feedback on the channel, and I love that you find enjoyment watching the content.
Thank you so very much for watching!
Sharmon probably already told you, but the land snail, I believe is called a Cuban Brown Snail or something like that (they are always white when I find them. I don’t know 🤷♀️ why they are called brown snails, but apparently they come in different colors). Those purple lipped fighting conches are gorgeous, especially the white one with the pale purple on the lip. So fun to see a collab between two of my favorite TH-camrs. 🥰 I am really missing the beach right now, so I definitely enjoyed this! Thanks!
I appreciate the helpful information! I was super psyched when I found those beautiful FFC's!
Thank you so much for watching!
💙
You have a gorgeous hand full of treasure enjoyed your film safe travels my friend
Thank you so much for watching!
Sharman is going to love our rose murex and your alphabet cones you found some beautiful shells Keewadin blessed you both
She also found a Rose, lol!
Thank you for watching!
Fun video combining 2 of my favorites! Beautiful collections!
Wooo Thank you for watching!
Love that you two did this together. You’re my favorites! And wow, amazing shells! I was there a couple months ago and didn’t near as many fabulous shells.
Sharmon and I thought it was the perfect time for a collab - glad you enjoyed the content!
Thanks for watching!
Yay for the rose murex! Glad you finally found one! I love Keewaydin. In January, my son got buzzed by a bald eagle on the southern tip while it was being chased by osprey. Looks like you had a quiet morning. And Thanks for the ocean sound running through the shells … my favorite sound in the world!
I am glad your son is ok! 💙
Thank you very much for watching!
I’ve been waiting on your video of Keewadin I watched SWF she found some pretty shells
I wanted to build some anticipation! 😎
Thanks for watching!
I love both of you and your videos. SWF Beach life with Sharmon is just great. I have contacted her and shared some things with her she is super, Brian, I follow you as well. I have also posted and asked where you are in Maine as that is where we live. I have shelled a couple of the same places that Sarmon has been. You both do a great job sharing, and I thank you both for taking me places that I will never travel to and you both love Florida Fighting Conchs....you sure found beautiful ones today. Thanks and love the collaboration❣️🦋❣️🐾🐾🐚🐚🐚🌊
Hi friend! I do a lot of shelling in Maine because I am originally from northern New England(NH), and I have family and friends that live in Maine. I shell a lot in Casco Bay, Midcoast, and Downeast when I can!
Thanks so much for watching!
Love both of your shelling you tube channels!!
Thank you for watching!
Your visuals are just beautiful. The music you choose is very fitting, too. Nice collaboration.
Thank you so much for the great feedback, and thank you for watching!
How wonderful for the both of you! Nice and great finds. You shelled in the place I shelled when I went there. I have friends that have camped on Keewaydin a few times at very negative low tide where they walked out SO far at that tip. I will not even mention how many alphabet cones they collected LOL It's a haven for them and large horse conchs. Snorkeling there is also pretty cool too if you like that kinda thing. The current around the tip is strong if you go too far out but if you stay close to the shore you just float around the entire tip grabbing at shells as the tide takes you out...get out, walk around and do it again and again, it's fun! There are lots of piles out in the water close to the shore around the tip. From my circle of shellers the tip is one of the best places on that island to shell. And after a storm...good heavens there are so many large horse conchs it's ridiculous!
Hi friend! Let me tell you... I love camping in Florida - experiencing wild nature here is second to none! Unabashedly, I'll admit that It's also the BEST way to ensure you are the first on the beach in the morning to find goodies 😄
Thanks so much for watching!
@@solaceinshelling6552 100%
Absolute best find was the white Florida Fighting Conch with the purple aperture!!
Thanks so much for watching!
Awwww my two fav shell humans together! 😂🐚
Woooo Thank you for watching!
Stunning finds! I love both of your channels! Those fighting conchs were amazing!
Thanks so much for watching!
Amazing!True tulips are my favorite.We went to Sanibel over the weekend and found some nice shells.I feel like since the hurricane Sanibel’s ocean floor has changed.Definitely looking into going to Keewaydin.Looked like a beautiful day😊
I would highly recommend a trip to Keewaydin if you have the opportunity - it's quite beautiful!
Thanks for watching!
Look at you, making us wait 😂 thank you, such a great shelling day! I’ll be in Marco Island next week shelling with Ali! Super excited 🌴
Lol, I wanted to build the shell-anticipation, of course!
Thanks for watching!
What a trip! I am also a fan of Sharmon! Was so nice u all could get together
Thank you for watching!
Absolutely..Wow ! Awesome finds for you both ! I had the Joy of meeting Sharmon on a kayak shell tour a while ago. Had a Blast ! So glad you two met up for shelling ! Fantastic video ! Thank you !!
Wooo! Thank you so much for watching!
Absolutely love it! You Guys are two of my fave shells collectors in the whole universe :)
Woooo! Thank you so much for watching!
What an amazing day🥰!! Love watching both your videos. So excited you guys teamed up and explored together😁. Jealous I couldn't be there enjoying the great finds as well.
Thank you so much for watching, shell friend!
Wow.. gorgeous finds!
Thank you for watching!
So many beauties!!
Thanks for watching!
Hi Brian! Thanks for the great video tour of your shelling adventure. I have followed Sharmon for some time and love her videos. Now I'm subscribed to your channel too! I'm from Washington State and an avid shell collector but have never been to Florida. Hoping to come later this year.
Hi shell friend, thank you for the sub! I was in Seattle on a work trip recently and was able to get out and do some beachcombing - I'll feature that episode some time in the near future!
Thanks for watching!
I certainly appreciate you and Sharmon for sharing all your knowledge and beautiful beach walks! Keewaydin is so amazing I love it there! That lightning whelk was beautiful when you put the moon snail back in the water. Assuming it was broken or alive? Holy moly alphabet cones!
It was quite the day for Cones, lol!
Thank you so much for watching!
You both make great videos. With wonderful shells 🐚 🥰.
Thank you for watching! 💙
@@solaceinshelling6552 You're welcome 🫠
I love both of your channels and truly appreciate you two getting together for a great collab! Several things you two have in common, trash off the beach, live animals back to the water and mostly...my absolute favorite...just relaxing to enjoy the whole experience. Gosh, I miss the beach and the hunt for all things interesting. Through you two, I'm still walking, still searching, and one hundred percent enjoying! Off to finish this video of beauty.
Wow, thank you so much for the great feedback! I think we both try to make the content we create as wholesome as possible.
Thank you for watching!
💙
This was quite a fun video to watch and as I really don't watch any other shelling videos, I thought that there was not much interaction as you were mostly the sole star of this video...thank you for that...and this adventure in shelling turned up some interesting finds! Looking forward to more adventures with you and thanx for letting me tag along on yet one more adventure with no need for suntan lotion...lol...in 4K, of course!
Hi friend, I am so glad you continue to come back to this content for enjoyment. 💙
I love the purple and blue shells
Thank you for watching!
You two definitely found some cool shells ❤
Thank you very much for watching!
You both are my favorites!!! ❤❤
Wooo! Thanks so much for watching!
Gorgeous finds!
Thanks for watching!
I just watched Sharman's channel a few days ago. Love the collab! You guys rock! ❤
Thanks for watching!
Gorgeous as always xxx I’m going to look into the ferry if you get 4 hours! That’s awesome, it’s longer than some of the shelling tours 👍🐚
Thanks so much for watching!
You found amazing things!!
Thanks so much for watching!
Beautiful! In 10 days I’ll be in Tahiti. I hope I might find a shell or two, not counting on it. But keeping my fingers crossed.
Ohhh you definitely can find some shells if you are able to research some spots ahead of time. The Indo-Pacific region is astounding for shell collecting!
Thanks for watching!
I so enjoy both your channels, 😊❤...
Thank you for watching! 🧡
Hi Bryan, Wow did you score gorgeous sea shells!!
Thank you for watching!
Congrats on your rose murex.
Thank you! 🌹🐚
Awesome video!❤❤❤
Thank you for watching!
Fabulous
Thanks for watching!
Be sure to tell Sharman about seeing the live gaudy nautica I don’t think she has ever seen a live one either
I love your channel along with Charmaine (sp?)! I love both of you!!
Aww thank you so much for watching!
Wow all of the alphabet cone 😮😊
At 1:10 yes I envy you... Nevertheless, I gave away my entire shell collection (you could buy two good 2nd hand cars for the money I spent) . I vcollected over 40 years and I come from The Netherlands. No subtropical seas there. The North Sea and the climate are a bit colder in temperament. Sea temperature is highest early Sept, about 20 degr C. Lowest in Feb/March with 3 degrees C. The North Sea shells are a bit less exotic I might say. No bright colours at the shores, mostly grey, cloudy, and cold rain...
The shot at 1:10 is from an upcoming episode shelling/camping with one of my best friends 💙
Interestingly enough, I LOVE Arctic/Boreal shells! The North Sea has some beautiful shell specimens like Neptunea despecta, Neptunea antiqua, and Buccinum species - gorgeous shells!
Thanks for watching!
It was not only a cone day, but also a murex day.
Love both types of days! 💙
HEY YALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
Have you ever been to Kice Island or Dickmans Island?
Hi! Yes, I have been to both, and have featured videos on this channel from both places - they are amazing. I also have another feature from Dickman's coming some time in the near future!
Thanks for watching!
Hi, can you tell me how do you handle your phone to make the videos, please?
Hi there! I actually snap my phone into a mount adapter on a flexible tripod for my filming. This is a very easy set up!
I use the Tripod to film when I am walking, and picking up shells, and when I get my b-roll shots(ocean waves, time lapse, and walking past the camera).
Thanks so much for watching!
Aren't you afraid to pick up the cones bare handed ?
All of the Cones found in this video were dead, empty shells - only live Cone Snails possess the ability to sting. Additionally, all of the species of Cone snails found in Florida are not deadly(unless you are allergic). Cone Snails of the Indo Pacific region can be lethal.
Thanks for watching!
