Adventure Tips
Wear a Hat for Sun Protection
Most of the tour takes place on open beach areas with minimal shade; a baseball hat helps shield you from the sun.
Bring Comfortable Footwear
Beach walking involves soft, shifting sand, so sturdy sandals or lightweight shoes will keep your feet comfortable during the hunt.
Stay Hydrated
Even on mild days, physical activity under the sun can dehydrate you quickly. Carry water and drink regularly before and after the tour.
Be Prepared for Tides
Tours are tide-sensitive—lower tides expose more sand and fossils, so schedule your visit accordingly for the best finds.
Local Insights
Wildlife
- shorebirds like sandpipers and herons
