How To Find And Keep The Best Shells On Sanibel

Bringing home a little bit of Sanibel with you will provide memories to last a life time!

Sanibel Island

My hesitation to concentrate on the shelling in writing about Sanibel is that everyone knows that fact. Sanibel is considered one of the three best places in the entire world to go shelling. Although it is in third place, the first two, the Pacific Islands and Africa are a little remote for the majority of visitors who come to Sanibel. So Sanibel attracts shell collectors from all over the country and as well as outside of the country.

Sanibel Island Beach Shells

While there are many, many things that distinguish Sanibel Island as a resort vacation destination, it is undeniable that the quality of shelling sets it apart. It is also worth mentioning that many of Sanibel's shells are simply works of art. A fruitful day on the beach is not just entertaining, it is a treasure hunt that can result in a wonderful find. But first the treasure hunter needs to be prepared to make the most of the shelling experience and protect the shells found and gathered.

The most important thing to keep in mind is that live shells are not allowed in your shell collection. Because seashells are important to the islands' chain of life, and because Sanibel and Captiva are refuge islands where all life is considered precious, the State of Florida has outlawed the collecting of live shells on the island. "Live shell" is defined as any specimen containing an inhabitant, whether or not the mollusk seems alive. The law also protects sand dollars, starfish and sea urchins. All shelling is prohibited in J.N. "Ding" Darling National Wildlife Refuge.

Sanibel Shells

Aside from avoiding collecting live shells, it is best for the Island ecology not to try to remove buckets of shells from the beaches. It is also best for you. Not only are the shells an example of your cup runneth over when you arrive home with lots of shells and no where to keep them, shell collections are best viewed as "less is more". In the words of Anne Morrow Lindbergh, wife of famed aviator, Charles Lindbergh, the shells of Sanibel and Captiva should be viewed as individual pieces: "One cannot collect all the beautiful shells on the beach. One can collect only a few, and they are more beautiful if they are few."

There are few places in the world where you can bring home such beauty from a vacation, and all for free! So with a cautionary and conservation philosophy in mind, here are the essentials of shell collecting: Be Prepared. Bring a bucket, a net bag and a scoop, and plenty of sun lotion as well as a hat if it is a hot, sunny day (as most days are on Sanibel!).

Shell at low tide preferably and after a storm to find the maximum number of shells and maximum variety. Soak shells in a 50/50 solution of water and bleach, few hours or overnight. If any barnacles or other matter is left remove with a pick or toothbrush. To make shells shine wipe with mineral oil or baby oil.

Sand Dollar

You may collect sand dollars but first check to make sure that the sand dollar is not alive - turn it over - there are little centipede feet up and down the backside - gently touch them with your finger to see if they move and its alive. If alive gently place back into the water and if they do not move, then you have just found one of the islands treasures!

To bleach a sand dollar white it is important to soak in fresh water first. Water will be a brownish color, change water frequently until fairly clear or just continually flush with water until water stays fairly clear. Soak in a 50/50 solution of bleach and water for 5-10 minutes. Do not soak too long in bleach solution as sand dollar may crumble. Rinse throughly, let dry preferably in sun to bleach further. To harden sand dollar for crafts or display: Mix equal portions of white glue and water. With paint brush cover sand dollar with mixture. Let dry.

As mentioned in a much earlier blog post, Sanibel Island is renowned for its great shelling. The phrase "Sanibel Stoop" refers to the many people you will see all year long bent over collecting shells from the beach.

How to Choose The Best Island To Visit in Hawaii

The #1 question that people ask on the Yahoo/Travel/US/Honolulu forum is, which is the best island to visit? The answer to which is dependent upon the "asker". What activities interest you? All the islands offer you the island basics...beautiful beaches, surfing, snorkeling, fresh fish and fruits, and lots of scenic sights.

Beyond that, each island serves up things unique: Kauai...1300' NaPali sea-cliffs, Waimea Canyon (Grand Canyon of the Pacific), the only navigable rivers in the state (5) and, as you can imagine, some great kayaking opportunities, some great zip-lining, and limited commercialization.

Waimea Canyon

Oahu...home to Honolulu, Waikiki, Pearl Harbor, Diamond Head and 75% plus of the state's population. So, you will find tons of hotels, restaurants, and nightclubs to keep you entertained and the best chance at finding a "deal". However, the price is that it can get pretty crowded at times and may not resemble the ideal tropical getaway you may be imagining.

Maui...falls somewhere in between Kauai and Oahu, and the second most visited island in the chain. High points of Maui include; snorkeling at Molokini island, a very scenic drive on the road to Hana, Haleakala National Park (10,000+ elevation) where everyone talks about catching sunrises! Go during the winter season and you'll have easy access to whale watching cruises, although they are available on all the islands, Maui probably has the easiest access. While zip-lining can also be found on Oahu (1), and the Big Island (2), Maui is the only island that can rival Kauai with its zip-lining opportunities.

Interested in witnessing the power of a volcano? The Big Island of Hawaii is your only choice. Also home to Kailua-Kona, Hilo (wettest city in the US), and 13,000'+ Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa. The Big Island offers all but two of the world's climate zones, landscapes that go from rainforest to dessert to alpine, all in a day's drive. The majority of resort development is confined to the Kailua-Kona side of the island and the rest of the island remains relatively untamed.

Kailua-Kona

There are also the islands of Molokai and Lanai you could visit. Molokai is a very laid-back community and has the reputation for excluding many visitors. They are not necessarily rude, just not overly warm. Even those who live in Hawaii rarely visit Molokai and those that do, mainly go for the hunting and fishing. Molokai is most infamous for being the location of the Leper Colony and Father Damien, located on the north shores of the island. Also found on the north shore are the world's highest sea-cliffs, standing over 3,000' above the ocean.

Molokini island

Lanai was known as the "Pineapple Isle" because it was almost entirely owned by the Dole Pineapple Company. About the only visits locals would make to Lanai was if they were one of the hundreds of high school students hired to pick pineapples during the summer break. Today, Lanai is reinventing itself as a resort destination with two resorts operating there. Not a lot to do, but if you're looking for "an escape", its a possibility worth looking into.

So, as you can see, there really is no one "best island". Everyone who visits leaves with their own personal favorite. To help you best pick your best destination, I have put a website together that points out things to do, places to go, and special events that might help.

Harbour Island Snorkeling (Bahamas)

Harbour Island (part of the Eleuthera Island group) is one of the finest vacation getaways in all of The Bahamas. Harbour Island snorkeling opportunities are exceptional and varied, and the island itself is the hub of coral reef snorkeling (and scuba diving) for the entire North Eleuthera area.

Harbour island Snorkeling Environment

An extensive and well-developed fringing reef system runs the entire length of the east-facing coast of Eleuthera, but most of this reef system is not readily accessed. Harbor Island is an exception to this generality, with many fine snorkeling sites for coral reef exploration but a short swim or boat trip from shore.

Harbour Island Diving

There are basically two choices when it comes to Harbour Island snorkeling on coral reefs of the area. One can snorkel either the exposed (windward) eastern coast where the main fringing reef and large hotels are situated, or (alternatively) the protected (leeward) coast which is far less developed in terms of tourism infrastructure, but has sparser and smaller coral formations.

Under calm conditions, your best Harbour Island snorkeling option is to visit reef sites off the eastern shore. The reef formations here are far more extensive, varied, and complex than on the lee side of the island, and when accessible can rival the very best of Bahamas snorkeling opportunities.

Many of the reefs along the eastern shore are shallow enough for great snorkeling, even for beginners. These reefs can be accessed either right from the beach or via a snorkel boat tour. The main reef comes closer to shore at the far ends of the world famous pink sand beach here, so if you plan to snorkel from the beach that's where to go.

When the wind is up, you will be better off heading over to the protected lee side of the island and snorkeling some of the many small coral heads and patch reefs that can be easily reached right from the beach.

Harbour Island Travel Tips

The islands of Eleuthera are located about 220 miles from Miami and about 60 miles east of Nassau, perched on the eastern edge of the Great Bahama Bank with nothing but thousands of miles of tropical Atlantic Ocean between the eastern shores of these islands and the coast o f Africa.

Harbour Island 

Regularly scheduled service from the U.S. to the North Eleuthera airport (ELH) is available from Atlanta, Miami, and Ft. Lauderdale. Daily 30-minute flights are also available from Nassau on BahamasAir. Harbour Island (sometimes misspelled as "Harbor Island") is readily accessed from the North Eleuthera airport by numerous fast motorboats that operate throughout the day.

Dunmore Town

The central hub of Harbour Island is Dunmore Town. With its Cape Cod like charm, this out island favorite has become (for better or worse, depending upon your point of view) a chic "in" getaway for the rich and famous, who lodge at posh resorts or extravagant beachfront homes.

Not surprisingly, the wealthier clientele have driven the average cost of staying on this lovely island somewhat higher than most of the Bahamas out islands commonly visited by tourists. Still, reasonably priced lodging and dive operations are readily available.
