Sanibel Island and Captiva Island have earned their reputation as the Shell Islands honestly.They are actually made out of shells, like some magnificent work of shell art created over thousands of years.When islanders dig gardens in their backyards,they find conchs, whelks, scallops and clam shells often perfectly intact.
The best shelling is found on the beaches of Sanibel and Captiva Islands.The islands rank tops in the world for shelling because of geography. Sanibel Island does the twist as it parades along the coastline among a string of other more orderly,straight-and-narrow islands. The east-west torque of Sanibel’s south end acts like a shovel scooping up all the seashells that the Gulf imports from The Caribbean and other southern seas.
