A beach-goers pocket companion for lazy days on the shore, or for the armchair beachcomber recalling the feel of sand between their toes. Noticing and collecting shells is an irresistible and accessible activity for pretty much everyone who goes to the beach, young or old, specialist, or first-timer.
Learn more about exploring the seashore and the treasures to be found, from seashells and pebbles to seaweed and sand, and discover the secrets of the tide and conservation, plus how to be a responsible collector and how to record your finds.
Susan Kelly is a writer, publisher, and editor of a wide range of non-fiction titles. She grew up not far from the sea in New Zealand and now lives on the south coast of the UK.
