Shelling Can't Be Beat Sanibel
is one of the unique barrier islands of the world, having
an east-west orientation when most islands are north
south. Hence, the island is gifted with great sandy
beaches and an abundance of shells. |

Best
Shelling Times
Low tide will yield
the best results on any given day. The best times of the
year to shell are after winter storms and tropical
disturbances. When winds and waves stir up the Gulf of
Mexico shelling can uncover all sorts of seashore
surprises. Shellers on Sanibel and Captiva sometimes shell
at night for the best opportunity. Tide

| The early bird
gets the worm
The islands rank tops in the world
for their shelling because of geography. The
east-west torque of Sanibel's south end acts like a shovel
scooping up all the sea shells that the Gulf imports from
Caribbean and other southern seas. People come from
all over the world, drawn by the great variety of
shells. Get up early and get them before some one
else does. |
