Seashell Stoop!


Sanibel Island,  off the west coast of Florida, USA is home to about 7,000 people and about a billion trillion seashells :).   The beaches of Sanibel attract tourist from around the world largely due to the massive amount of seashells that wash up along the shore.  The shells accumulate on the beaches as Sanibel is a barrier islands which is part of a large plateau that extends into the Gulf of Mexico for miles.   The plateau acts as a shelf for seashells to gather :).
