Sanibel Island Shelling

Sanibel and Captiva islands rank tops in the world for their shelling. The east-west torque of Sanibel's south end (where the Sundial is located) acts like a shovel scooping up all the sea shells that the Gulf imports from Caribbean and other southern seas.

Conch, Junonia, Lightning Whelk, Cockle, Scallops, Murex, Tulip, Olive, Coquina are among the species you may expect to find. The temperature today is 77 degrees with clear skies.
