Title: Sharks Teeth
Location: Beaches
How long have you been interested in finding and collecting sharks teeth?
I’ve been shark tooth hunting for roughly 10 years.
Where all have you gone in search of?
I search from Vilano beach to Fort Clinch.
How many do you estimate you’ve collected?
I have an estimated 9000 teeth. Last time I counted it was over 8000- 3 years ago
What size range of the teeth do you see?
I have some that are so tiny, I’m not sure how I found them, my largest being 2 inches long.
Most people have never seen one. Why are you so successful? Secrets please haha
I learned to find them by focusing on looking for black “junk” on the beaches, as most of them are black. Looking while the tide is going out is when I like to look. Where there is limestone, you’ll find teeth. It takes lots of patience and hours of searching but once you find your first, it becomes a bit easier.
