    Such an AWESOME day shelling! I believe it is a HUGE lace murex! & I am still ecstatic about that Giant Tun Shell! I had just said this was a bucket list shell for me! SO EXCITING!

      Oh I'm glad you felt the excitement, that was one of our best beachcombing days ever! We are in the Lowcountry of South Carolina. 👋 Our public beaches don't have much, as far as real shell collecting. 😌 Wonderful beaches none the less. 🏖🌊 But occasionally we get lucky like on this day & find some beautiful treasures out on some of the barrier islands that are only accessible by boat. 🚤⛵ Thanks so much for watching and commenting! 🌊🐚💙

    Have you thought about maybe talking to someone about donating some of those perfect whelk shells to Goodwill or a church so they could sell them? It's just a thought, I know some shells can be expensive so maybe it would be a great way to raise funds for a non-profit organization. It makes me sad to see you leave those beautiful shells.
    Btw, congratulations on those beautiful finds. I really appreciate you sharing with us. Much love and respect to you both. 💞

    ”I’m not really a shell hoarder,”. Lol, “but I just deal with a shell hoarder.” I am literally laughing my butt off! My husband is he same, lol. Thanks for a a wonderful virtual beach whelk, in my area we find nothing, but when I travel the 1000 plus miles to visit a beach, I love to collect whatever is along the shore at that time! You two are a blessing to those of us who live a long way from the coast, but love to beach comb when we get the chance!

    • @SaltyReflections
      @SaltyReflections  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks! We're getting tons of heart warming stories. There are a lot of people that can't visit the beaches very often that would love to. They live to far away or might even be to old to walk the beaches. Some of the stories are so sad. Thanks for watching!

    Hey Oliver I heard Stephanie drop another hint about no more room for the shells. lol😁
    I was hoping you had another awesome bottle but it looked like a Bud Light bottle. I’m digging the clothing line! Ordering me shirts today. Thanks for making these videos for us to enjoy.

      Thank you! Stephanie knows we have to cut back. LOL! Even I loved the shirts but they were not holding up. After a few washings the vinyl was peeling off. The only thing holding up was the pants Stephanie's wearing. I think Steph took all the shirts off because we don't want anyone buying them and getting disappointed. That's how we are. We'll have to see what else we can come up with. Sorry, I'm very disappointed myself.

    Wow!!! What a gorgeous murex. Pretty sure it's a giant Atlantic. Laces are longer. Great knobbed whelk day too! You really found some beauties! And then to top it all off, a GIANT TUN??!! Congrats, guys! Just curious - was this after a storm or front? My name is Ginger and I'm a shell hoarder... It's the joy of finding the treasures. What helps me is where I go I can give some away at the beach to folks visiting FL. Hard for you to do if you're the only ones there!😃 Your favorite shelling Saltaholic is very happy for you!!❣️

It is definitely the thrill of the hunt. I guess since you guys are the ones out there with us, we get to give them away to yall! :)

    I don't believe I would be able to leave any of them. I'm like y'all though because the blue ones are absolutely gorgeous. Do y'all ever use acid to clean them? Are y'all able to sell any of them? What do y'all do with them? I'd have my whole property covered in them.
    I really enjoy your videos. I'm pretty much home bound so I get to go to the beach with y'all. I am glad you are sharing your past times with us. I really appreciate it.

We'll have to watch our own videos. LOL! We have sold a few of our finds to others that love shells and some to others that just want them because we have found them together through the videos. Either way, we're glad some of them are going to others to enjoy.

  • @elainehintz2564

    Love, love, love all your Videos ! I have a few questions .......oyster shells are some of my favorite and the beaches you visit seem to ALWAYS be just littered with them! Do you ever host personal excursions? If not, do you have a recommendation for a local tour business that would tour some of the same beaches you frequent? I am an avid sheller from upstate NY, having made numerous visits to several beaches in FL. On my bucket list to shell SC for some of those huge welks & oyster shells.
    Many thanks for any info and also for entertaining us with beach & shelling therapy !!!

    • @SaltyReflections
      @SaltyReflections  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, our beaches are covered in Oyster shells. There are truck loads of them piled up on some of the beaches we visit. Check out tours to Phillips Island in S.C. Hope this info helps. Thanks for watching!

      Yes, we think our finds are just as good as the finds from Sanibel. We really don't know of anyone taking shellers out of Edisto but I'm sure you'll enjoy your time there. We see lots of people shelling about a mile north of the pavilion on Edisto. Might be a good place to try. Happy Shelling!

      WOW! That would be awesome! We have only found this one complete tun shell! It is AMAZING it survived the long journey from wherever it is native to! We have only found 4 or 5 other pieces of tun shell, so they are really rare here! 💙🐚

    Looks like the foggy day payed off! The murex was a giant eastern murex, you can rule out all the other murex shells just by size. The other ones don't get anywhere near the size of the one you found! And the other stellar find was indeed a giant tun snail. I've heard they can get up to 10 inches in length, and I can hardly imagine one that huge! Thanks for sharing!

      Yeah it did! That murex is awesome & definitely one of our favorite finds. It is in such great condition compared to the other murex that size that we have found. That giant tun shell was a bucket list find for me! I knew as soon as I seen that it was filled with water that it was likely not broken & was sooooooo ecstatic as you could tell. :) No I can not image a 10 inch one, oh my gosh, I would go crazy!
