One of the prettiest places I’ve ever seen! 😍🐚 The Anegada Conch Mounds are 10–12-foot piles of queen conch shells near Anegada in the British Virgin Islands, created from the 13th century by the Arawak and later fishermen!

Ever wonder how Bahamians get the snail out of a queen conch shell? 🐚🇧🇸 First, they pierce a small hole in the top of the shell to sever the muscle that anchors the conch to its spiral home. Then with a twist and pull, the snail slides out—ready for cleaning, cracking, and cooking into something delicious like conch salad or stew! It’s a traditional practice passed down through generations. Have you ever tried fresh conch in the islands? #QueenConch #BahamasCulture #conchshack #bimini #seafood #IslandLife #conchsalad #conchshell #seashell #bahamas

If you really want to know...⬇️ . I'm asked often "why don't you keep all the conch shells"?? Here's why ⬇️ . These are Florida Fighting Conchs and they are EVERYWHERE on the beaches in Florida. I come across them very often! 🐚 . This hyperlapse clip should show you a bit more of just how common they are. I find them on just about every beach I visit!🙌🏼 . When I first started shelling in Florida, I did keep these, but once I accumulated quite the collection, I kept a few freaks and uniquely colored ones and took the rest back to the beach. 💙 . Once you've been collecting for a while, you'll come to the realization of "what am I supposed to do with all of these?" and if you appreciate the ethics of shelling and want to protect the environment, giving shells back to the Ocean is a beautiful gift 🙏🏼 . Are there any seashells that you find often? Comment below and 🙏🏼 SHARE this with a beach combing friend! . . #floridabeaches #conchshell #seashells #beachcombingfinds #shells🐚 seashells in florida, shelling in florida, beach finds videos,

Tracking queen conch! Our team is attaching temporary biologgers to queen conch in the Florida Keys to track their movement behaviors! This will help us better understand their ecology for management of the species!! All activities are conducted with approved permits. Excited to be working with the Shedd Aquarium team assisting them with this research project! #shelling #queenconch #research #flkeys #marinebiology #conservation #womeninstem #pov #gopro

🎶Ain’t nobody dope as my shells, they just so fresh and so clean (clean) 🐚🫧 Depending on the area or how long a shell’s been tumbling in the tide, some treasures need extra TLC. Here is my Shell glow-up in 5 easy steps: 1️⃣ Soak in a bleach + water for 24 hours 2️⃣ Rinse/spray off shells with fresh waters 3️⃣ Gentle scrub = exfoliation, baby 🧼 4️⃣ A lil’ coconut or mineral oil for that shiny shell finish ✨ 5️⃣ Stare at them in awe 💛 No live shells were taken. We follow a strict no-live-shelling policy to protect marine life and preserve our coastal ecosystems. • • #Seashells #floridakeys #snorklefinds #oceantreasures #beforeandafter #lowkey #sofreshsoclean #bestofflorida #conchlife #queenconch #ethicalshelling #goexplore #protip
