I had heard long before I went down there that the Assateague Seashore was one of the best seashell hunting beaches on the east coast. I am an avid shell collector and have a lovely collection. I was surprised and a bit disappointed not to find anything nice. I don't know the reason(s) for sure, but I believe part is the nuber of poeple on the beach at the time. Now if I go in January, it might be a different story. I am going again in November, so we shall see.

There was a whelk photo in my slideshow... here is another, still alive.
