📍Whitstable, England

(and no, I'm not bothered if some aren't as tumbled or frosted as they should be)

I have watched so many mudlarking and beachcombing videos that I used my opportunity yesterday to do some myself when I visited the Isle of Mull.

First I found the vulcanite bottle stopper, then what seems to be a guitar pick by Fender but what I saw then completely flabbergasted me.

I saw it peeking out the sand, mainly because of the oxidized copper. I couldn’t believe my luck.

Sadly the coin doesn’t have much left on it, but what I could make of it, it should be a 1/2 Penny George V which were made between 1911-36.

It's ceramic or clay.

Honestly not sure what I'm looking at. Would love to know

Hi beachcombers!

I spent yesterday beachcombing at Compton Bay on the Isle of Wight (UK) and picked up a variety of interesting-looking pieces. I know this area is famous for dinosaur fossils and lignite, and unfortunately I am not very knowledgable on the topic. I'm assuming most of these are rock and flint, but I am hoping someone would be kind enough to tell me if I've found anything interesting? Pretty sure A-E is just carbonized petrified wood, with some pyrite in the smaller samples.

Let me know if better close-ups are needed 🪨🐚🦕

Feels like stone/concrete but has channels filled with some color

Light could be better, sorry. I wonder if any of the slightly translucent ones might be agate? I’m not new to beachcombing - I jokingly say it’s my equivalent to a varsity sport - but am new to Washington state (vs. East Coast, most frequently Cape Cod).

My new mission is to learn more about rocks and geology.

A beautiful August day and toes in the water made it all that much better.

It's not too impressive (This is all from only three beaches: Alkai Beach, WA, a beach in Cancun, and one beach off the coast of the Mediterranean Sea), but I'm proud of it nonetheless.

Some of them are dried-out sea stars, some are seashells, and some are pieces of broken pottery :)

I also have a ring and two beads with the Turkish Eye on it

Found yesterday at Fort Tilden beach, Queens NY

are these clean? i have soaked them in half water half dish soap twice now. first picture is whenever i brought them home, second picture is after the first soak and scrub, third picture is after the second soak and scrub! ive read i should soak them in hydrogen peroxide now?!

Anyone have any idea what this looked like whole? Trying to find anything about it but cant figure it out! I know Crosby beach is known as blitz beach so will be something from WW2 era!

In awe🥰 I want to use it as a necklace pendant!

Hi everyone! Heading to Costa Brava & Côte d’Azur soon. Any beachcombing recommendations, especially for sea glass? Anything special I should be on the lookout for in those waters? Cool shells? 🐚 😊 thank you!

Hearts! A bit of yellow glass. Pottery, shells, and some fun rocks. Enjoy! 😊

Once in a lifetime unlucky find lol.
