Sanibel Shelling

One of the best beaches to find pretty seashells sits right here in the U.S.! Sanibel, Florida, is a hotbed for finding tons of amazing shells.

The orientation of how Sanibel Island sits in the ocean creates the perfect catch basin for  thousands of shells. Sanibel also has an area off the coast called a ground level swell, which is similar to a sandbar, that forms and pushes shells to the beautiful beaches of Sanibel. You can spend hours on the beach and fill buckets of the most beautiful shells you will ever see.
