Some people call these beach booty, or beach treasures or simply just beach findings. Whatever you call them, they are truly treasures. And this was a great find! I couldn't believe the amount of shells washed up on shore. Normally beach glass and scallops are the most prevalent shells, but since beach renourishment in Nags Head there has been a much greater variety. Sand dollars washed up everywhere this past summer as tons of sand were pumped on shore. And some can still be found washing up this winter. I only wonder about how beach renourishment affected their habitat. And the brain coral is a rare find as well.
