Shelling MacArthur Beach! Found my 1st helmet shell ❤️

I can’t tell you enough how much I miss the rocks at MacArthur-on this day so many of them were exposed! In a previous video at this location, I had mentioned they had a sand renourishment project north of this park that ended up covering a lot of these rocks-they are still there showing but not as much anymore. I’m so happy I have this footage that I can relive and share with you, and I have more in the future to share here too. This beach walk is special because I found my first helmet shell. I also found, thorny oysters, scotch bonnets, sea glass and more. Join me let’s walk my favorite east coast beach!

Hi! Jan here, from land-locked Austria. Your broken shell succulent garden is gorgeous. I am very jealous of all the Scotch Bonnets, the queen helmet, and the star shell you found in this shelling trip. I just returned from Florida today. While on the East coast, I found a few nice lions' paws and several others from my wish list, but no helmets, knobbed whelks, large cowries (but two itty bitty ones), vases, scotch bonnets, or star shells. Leaves a lot for the next trip! Thanks so much for your entertaining and inspirational videos.

Thank you ☀️ how amazing that you were able to travel abroad to Florida I hope on your next trip you can check off more of your bucket list! And yes, what you haven’t found totally leaves the excitement open for the next time. Welcome back home and thank you for watching and commenting 🌊

I was so excited to see you using the big broken shells for a succulent garden! I am hoping to get some on my trip to Florida in August to do the same thing! Congratulations on finding that beautiful queen helmet!

Nice! I have lion's paws as my like all-time favorite but I go into periods where others are my favorites too...went through a bonnet phase myself. Thx for watching and it's a pleasure making these shelling videos to share with you.

Took a trip to Palm Beach for shelling and went to John D MacArthur...didn't realize the walk to the rocks was sooo far, over a mile for sure and we never even got to the rocks that are in your video. There has to be a closer entrance to these rocks north of the park. Unfortunately only pieces of Scotch Bonnets and a lion's paw.....lots of bittersweets.

I love your succulent garden!! so many people walk away from the rougher looking large shells. I only have a few that were given to me and I put air plants in them. 20 more days and I'll be at McArthur picking up beauties!!

I had some air plants in horse conchs on my coffee table till the baby came along 🙃 I love the broken larger shells for small planters! Thx so much for watching and have a wonderful time when you go ❤️🌊☀️

Thank you! Yes, very nice spot - I hope you can visit. A good portion of those rocks are covered now b/c of a beach renourishment north of the park but the rocks come and go depending on where the sand settles. Thx for watching!

I love the Orangey/Red thorny oyster shells so much. I love the vibrant colours. You found beautiful shells in a pristine place. So beautiful. Loved the display of everything you found at the end. All the colours, shapes, textures, designs, and worn sea glass. Love the black lions paw. Your favorites were all amazing. Your succulent garden looks so pretty. Those worn shells are also art. Thank you for sharing this beautiful day with us. Waving from Germany. 👋🌊🌊🌴🐚🐚

Congrats on the helmet! That little crab carapace was a blotched swimming crab. Had to look that one up as I didn't know it either. I don't have big rocks like that at Honeymoon Island except at the jetties and those are always good spots to shell. Love your succulent garden! I only have 1 shell with a succulent (broken horse conch too). That was a LOT of Scotch bonnets!👍 MacArthur looks like a beautiful place! Thanks Roxanne!

Seriously! That movie messed us up 🤣 My husband got his license years ago in his 20’s, so this would be something fun for both of us to do-just maybe in a couple years and after some praying about it! 🙏🏼🙃 Glad you are enjoying the beach walks! I have so much more to share 👍🏼☀️🐚 Take care!

I’ve heard some shell guides refer to the spiral remnant of a conch as “the cob”. Rose sounds nice too

The very north end of the park. A good portion of those rocks are covered now b/c of a beach renourishment north of the park a little white back, but the rocks come and go depending on where the sand settles. The best time is extreme negative low tides to see them. Thx for watching!
