How & when to hunt for
shark teeth?

Searching for the shark teeth is very simple, just beachcomb and look for triangular objects. It's best to hunt near the waters edge at low tide and in tide mark areas along the beach where shells and pebbles have congregated, often teeth will be mixed with them. The beaches is very wide, so there can be multiple areas of shells and pebbles to search. After a storm is also a great time to hunt (as long as it is safe). Storms cause the fossils in the water to get tossed onto the beach. Just be careful of strong currents and waves after a storm

Finally, the winter and spring tend to be a little better for finding shark teeth

Hunting Tools

When you arrive, you will be given some tools to use. Each will received a sifter shovel, a sifter pail and then the kids grabbed some hand held sifters. All the tools you’ll need for the tour will be provided. You’ll need to make sure you’re dressed appropriately and bring bottle water and some snacks. I highly recommend wearing water shoes and clothes that you don’t mind getting wet. Sunscreen is good to use, but not necessary because it’s a very shaded area. Bug spray is a must, particularly in the summer.
