Some people get so hooked on searching the beach for treasures that it turns into their hobby. Or something even more serious.
Take Gail Browne, for example. She is one of many artists and collectors who have succumbed to the lure of the sands in Provincetown, Massachusetts. The fisherman's village is a summer resort and a world-famous art colony where generations of painters have come to capture the elusive Cape Cod light.
Browne and her friend Amy Heller, a fellow artist who has been combing the beaches since she was a child, are inspired in their work by the natural beauty of Cape Cod as well as the treasures they uncover on its beaches, then display in their homes. The two women collaborated on a 2020 book that shares their beachcombing experiences as well as those of four other artist-collectors: 'Lost and Found: Time, Tide, and Treasures.' And last October, the Cape Cod Museum of Art also staged an exhibition about them.

These Clouds At The Beach Look Like Waves
Susie Johnson 3 years ago
Those clouds have a name(which I cannot recall)- they form near the coastline and are rate.
Browne likes to approach the shoreline an hour before low tide, the time seasoned beachcombers believe to be the best for scanning around seaweed, rocks, and shells for a glint of man-made artifacts.
The thousands of relics she has uncovered so far are like portals into the past: 1700s English transferware shards, fishermen’s pipes, 19th-century clay marbles, a bronze oil lamp. You name it.

My Friend Found A Bottle Post On The Beach From A 5-Year-Old Boy, And Sends This To Him
""Hi Mathias,
Thank you for your letter! We are two girls who got very happy when we found your bottle on the beach in Løkken, where we are currently on vacation. If you look on the map which we drew you can see how far your bottle traveled. It is about 277 km in a straight line. We found the bottle on the 25th of june. So it must have taken it 12 days to reach Denmark. That is about 1 km/h which is the same speed as a land turtle walking. Our names are Mischa and Rowan. Rowan is 26 from Bristol in England and Mischa is 21 and lives in Århus in Denmark. If you look on the map you can see an arrow that points towards England. Rowan is working in the British army. Mischa wants to be an architecht and draw big houses. What do you wanna become when you grow up?. You can answer us if you want on email xxxxxx.
Best regards Rowan and Mischa.
P.S. The sweets are for you and your friends in the kindergarten. Can you guess what flag is on them?"

I was once in the same situation. A cloud exactly like on this picture appeared in a completely clear sky - it was a very good day, warm sunny and absolutely no wind. It approached not very quickly, so we made some selfies, a found comfortable places to watch the cloud coming. I never saw something like this before: huge, majestic and very beautyful - triumph of nature. Water was still and still no wind. I thought it will be just a rain. But when it finally reached the beach the Apocalypse began: all our stuff including phones, clothes, food and bottles with water was blown away, sandstorm, we could barely see 3-4 meters away. Luckily we were close to old ruined beach-bar, and found some kind of shelter between 3 walls and part of roof. It lasted about 10-15 minutes, after sandstorm was heavy rain and temperature dropped to 15 C. All the phones were found, food was ruined, towels and my skirt were taken by the Poseidon, i think. But we got a lot of experience and little scratches.

My Brother Found A Bunch Of Vertebrae Bones On The Beach And Put Them Back Together Like A Puzzle
Some territories are more generous than others, and Provincetown is one of those places.
Its harbor basically served as the town dump until the 1930s. "Everyone threw their junk into the harbor. It was pretty nasty," Browne said. "It all settled down, and what didn’t rot stayed behind and got covered up. Tides and wind shift it, and that uncovers it."
Provincetown's period as a major whaling and fishing center has also contributed to these riches of the deep.

As you can see, all of these relics are beautiful on their own, but when massed into bowls or jars, or displayed on shelves, the objects can become the focal point of a room, and a history lesson for anyone who will listen.
No wonder collecting things from the sand has a long history. But the first appearance of the word "beachcombers" in print was in Herman Melville's Omoo (1847). The text described Europeans living in South Pacific islands, "combing" the beach and nearby water for flotsam, jetsam, or anything else they could use or trade.

Unfortunately, in recent decades, the flotsam and jetsam of our beach strandlines have become dominated by plastic litter, from bottles to bags and fishing nets to everyday items such as cigarette lighters, toothbrushes, and printer cartridges.
Marine trash is a global problem of unimaginable scale and consequence, both to the animals that live in the sea and to ourselves. So if you do venture out to comb a beach, a good habit to develop would be to pick up one or two not-so-pleasant finds as well.

That one's mine! I remember playing that hole. It was tough and my ball went slightly over the end of the green. I had two pick it off hard, wet sand up to a green I couldn't see. Well, I set to shoot with a hybrid short sand wedge. Caddie and I discuss all possibilities. He suggested putter, but I thought it needed a lift. Question was whether to when to take the shot high and let it drop (accuracy is the essential aspect of this hit) Well, but his suggestions have bee very good. Well, I chose to use hybrid and drop it perfectly on the green. (That's what every golfer does; decide the best club for herself....until her caddy becomes voice of reason). Anyway this ball just disappeared. I decided it had rolled into a ground squirrel burrow. Then, I had to go back and hit a provisional. Buuuttt, if this is mine, it would have no initials and no lines.....they weren't permitted except for a very small dot or initials. I never marked mine.

"Omg, you can literally see the ship disapearing on the horizon!" "IF yOu HaVE StRoNG EnOuGH bInOCUlaRs, YoU cAN sEe It!" *facepalm*
RafCo (he/him) 3 years ago
So I was curious about this, and so did the math. So I wanted to know how far a ship would be when it dropped below the horizon. For a ship with a height of 30m (pretty tall ship), that would be between 19-20 km away before it was completely obscured from view. Visibility through the atmosphere on the cleanest possible day would be about 296km. This would be reduced by water particles in the air caused by evaporation from the ocean. Even still, with a good set of binoculars, and if the flat earthers were correct, you should be able to see a ship well past 20km. In reality, visibility from shore is somewhere between 3 and 5 km, depending on your height, as the curvature of the Earth is a real thing. You can further prove the curvature of the Earth at the beach. Take a photograph of the horizon. Then compress the width of the image, without compressing the height. The curvature will be easily visible.

Coquina! At least, that's what we call them. If you dig up a handful and line them up at the water's edge you can watch them race to re-bury themselves.

In 27 Years Of Life, Today Is The First Time I've Seen A Sand Dollar At The Beach. Bodega Bay
Upstaged75 3 years ago
We find them all the time on the gulf coast of Florida. They bury themselves right underneath the top layer of sand. (Underwater I mean) It's against the law to keep a live one (Except some weird thing about a child is allowed 1 per year or something - which means letting it die, which we don't like and won't allow the kids to do.) But it's cool to pull them up and examine them. They are actually fuzzy and brown. (The white ones are dead and bleached.) You also have to be careful to put them back the correct way - if they end up upside down they can't flip back over. OK, that's the end of my sand dollar lecture for the day. :)

I Found A Fossil At The Beach Today

I have one like that too, but i found it in a cave in the Swiss Alps. Therefore it can't be a coral, does anyone know what it could be?
M O'Connell 3 years ago
Being found in the mountains doesn't rule out being coral. The Swiss alps were formed during the Oligocene epoch (between 34 and 23 million years ago) as a result of the African continental plate colliding with the more stationary Eurasian plate. It is possible that the coral fossil you found isn't much older than that, making it relatively young as coral fossils go.

Masked Thief Steals Bag Off The Beach In Costa Rica
RafCo (he/him) 3 years ago
This is probably Manuel Antonio beach on the Pacific Coast of Costa Rica. This is actually a real problem. The raccoons have learned they can steal food from tourists on the beach in the daytime. The problem is that raccoons are nocturnal animals. Their eyes haven't evolved to see in the daytime, and as a result they end up going blind at a very young age. It's not uncommon to see them being hit by cars as a result. This problem is exacerbated by the fact that tourists like seeing them on the beach, so they purposefully leave food for them to attract them. Luckily the Costa Rican government is serious about animal welfare. There are serious penalties for violating their rules concerning food on the beach for this reason.
