This makes it one of the best places in the world to find unique shell varieties. Stop by the Bailey-Matthews National Shell Museum to see the Great Hall of Shells exhibit or start scouring the sands yourself! So many people love to shell on Sanibel Island that bending down to reach for a shell is referred to as the “Sanibel Stoop.” Some species you might find include Conch, Junonia, Lightning Whelk, Scallops, and more. Here’s one tip to remember: the best time for shelling is at low tide when seashells are exposed on the shore.
