Thank you so very much for watching this content - I appreciate your viewership! 💙🐚
How many beautiful shells 🐚 😍.
Southwest Florida beaches are fabulous for shelling. My favorite place for shelling. I've not found a Scotch Bonnet or Queen conch. Or a Horse conch. What an awesome day at the beach!
Amazing beaches! I have only found one Scotch Bonnet in SWFL - this was at Cayo Costa after a storm.
Thanks for watching, friend!
Dickman is my heaven on earth. thanks for this. ❤
It certainly is an astounding place!
Thanks for watching!
Oh my gosh Brian. The shelling was amazing. Six more days I leave for Juno and the Palms (you gave me that incentive) and then over to Marco Island for a week. I can't wait to go over to Dickmans and Kice, my favorites. Wish me luck to find a "J" !!!!!
I hope your shelling trip was amazing, friend! Thank you for watching!
Oh my goodness! This video was beautifully produced, AND the shells! No words! Thank you for sharing! ❤❤❤
Thank you so much for watching!
That alphabet cone and purple murex are amazing!
Absolutely beautiful! 🌻🐕🥰
Thanks so much for watching! 💙🐚
Would love to go to the 10,000 islands! Shells are incredible!
WOW!!! What a fun day!
Thanks for watching!
I really enjoyed your video. All the shells are beautiful.
You have a lovely channel. I’m a new subscriber, and I’m really enjoying it. Thank you.
Woooo, this makes me happy! Thanks so much for watching the content! 🐚
Oh my God today shelling was so gorgeus. Everything was perfect and a lot of diversity, thank to share it. so 🥰
Epic shelling! Your hands look so cold🥶. Excellent video, thank you. Give some ear scratches to Yuki for me! Take care
Thank you so much for watching, and extra ear scratchies for Yuki! 🐶
Love Marco Island going back in November can’t wait
Wooo, I hope you have an amazing time!
Thanks for watching!
Winter is said to be the best time to go because of the amount and variety of shells. I intend to pack all my warmest clothes, including long johns that I can wear under my jeans. I will not get cold!
Hopefully it will not be THIS cold on your adventure... though I do wish you the best collecting! 💙🐚
Gorgeous treasures! 🐚
There is a shelling device that you can purchase. It has a collapsing long handle with a little metal basket on the end so if you see something in cold water or not quite reach the shell, you can pull this out and scoop up the desired shell. I am so thinking about getting one for myself.
Omg.. what else can you say!!! Besides thank you!!!
Thanks for the great feedback, and thank you for watching!
Gorgeous apple murex !
Thanks so much for watching!
...always fun tagging along and not have to weather the cold as it can be so biting! Love the shell haul and thanx for letting me tag along, again...!
Thank you so much for watching, shell friend!
I'm so not a fan of the cold, hence why I live in Florida, but man you are right about those cold fronts. The shells can be amazing!! Dickman's Island can be absolutely epic! Nice video as always!
Hi shell friend! I always love to see your comments here - 10k islands are truly a gem! 💙
@@solaceinshelling6552 They really are. I was out there yesterday (just north or the 10k island) and I think that Idalia is still pushing in shells for us!
Awesome shells
Thanks so much for watching!
You found some amazingly beautiful shells today as always. The lace and apple murax are just beautiful. You can see so many details in these shells along with all the other beautiful shells. Thank you for a great shelling video. Have a great day 😊
Thank you for the great feedback, and thank you for watching!
Fabulous shells. The array of size and colours of the Apple Murex shells was amazing. Thank you so much for bearing the cold to bring us such a great experience. 🥶🐚😃
In SW Florida, and the 10K islands in particular, I find that the Apple Murex can have such great tonal variation.
Thanks for watching!
Thank you!❤️
What a spectacular day you had! I love the intensity of color of the shells, especially the chocolate alphabet cone, the orange true tulip and the purple murex. Just beautiful!
From my personal experience, shells coming from the 10k islands always seem to be a bit more vividly hued than at other spots in SWFL - interesting!
Thanks for watching!
Wow, best shelling day ever!, Some real beauties❤️
Thank you so much for watching, friend! 🐚
Fantastic shelling day! Thank you for taking us along 😊
Thank you so much for watching, shell friend!
STUNN-ING!!! I have to admit I was a little jelly not being able to there too. I would have loved to have been there for that adorable treasure hunt. As always, brilliant vlog and thanks for sharing xxx
Hi shell friend! Thank you so much for watching! 💙
Beautiful
Thank you for watching!
Gorgeous conch I would call it cow conch
🐮🐚
Thanks for watching!
Unbelievable purple spple murex!
Ok, this was one of my favorite finds from this trip. And to think, I almost lost it to that quick wave!
Thanks for watching!
Absolutely incredible shelling! The purple hues on the murex. Definitely miss shelling that part of Florida!
Purple Murex was one of my favorite finds!
Thanks for watching!
💜
What an awesome experience even if it was cold. I was looking at my screen in in rapt attention the entire time. Awesome video!❤❤❤
Aww I am glad you had a great time, despite the cold 😃
Thanks so much for coming along!
We’ve been to the 10K numerous times and I completely agree- one of the best shelling experiences ever! We found 2 rose murex on our last visit. Can’t wait to go back!! Great video!
Lucky! The Rose Murex is still on my bucket list 😊... one day!
Thanks so much for watching!
Nice. Thanks for taking us along.
Thank you for watching!
When you picked up the nautica you missed the baby juvenile conch!!😮
It's so hard to spot them all, lol!
Thanks for watching!
Magnificent shells and you have such a great video style. I just went out with Reel Kind this past weekend and collected hundreds of shells on Shell Island. I also did Turner and Bowman on Sanibel and Tigertail on Marco Island. The shells were everywhere, but you definitely can’t beat the 10,00 islands you can only get to by boat, so many shells even in the summer so you don’t have to freeze!
Hi friend, I just love Reel Kind! This area of Florida is unmatched for shelling experiences.
Thanks for watching!
Great shell haul ! Love the true tulips! Winter is the best time on the 10k Islands!
Absolutely agree! Thanks so much for watching!
Beautiful seashells.❤❤❤
That purple murex!❤
Thank you for watching!
@3:51, WOW, that is a huge Murex!
This one really is amazing for sure!
Thanks for watching!
What time of the year was this? We are going the the first week of December. I can’t wait! Thank you for sharing this I loved it.
Hello, this was late December of last year(2022). Good luck on your shell journey!

That is seashell nirvana! I frequent Ocean City MD and never really see any good shells.
Awww, thanks so much for coming along!
8:13 missed a sand dollar but amazingshells
настоящий Клондайк это у нас стоит много денег у нас нет таких ракушек
Was this recorded recently? I have found many broken paper figs at Sanibel but they are such a delicate shell, I have never been lucky enough to find a whole one. Same story with the angel wings.
Hi friend, this episode was recorded in December of 2022(last year)
Thank you so much for watching!
HEY YALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
9:41 missed sand dollar
As for me, I enjoy learning, so I love to guess what shell it is, but when you grab them, you don't always say what it is. In this video you might mention them but it's like under your breath, so we can't always hear it. Great video, though. Beautiful scenery.
Hi shell friend! Yeah, this was definitely not my best work with audio - the conditions were horrible. I am always trying to improve the learning experience here.
Thanks for watching!
I don't mean to make another comment, but I have always wanted a pen shell. I know you guys are not fond of pen shells. I am up here in the north. Is there a way I can get one or two? Thanks in advance for letting me know.
14:16 sand dollar
Such a good eye! Regrettably, I did not see it when passing :(
Thanks so much for watching!
Where was this
The sound of your feet crushing shells is very sad.
