Program Description

Event Details

Southwest Florida, and Sanibel in particular, is the shelling capital of the country. Shellers come from all over the world to enjoy the abundance of shells on our local beaches. This presentation will cover where and when to shell, why Sanibel has such an abundance of shells, and how to identify and care for your shells. Participants will also learn some of the most common and sought-after shells in the area.

Presented by the The Bailey-Matthews National Shell Museum.
