Hi, I will be travelling for work to North Carolina and am thinking to drive or fly somewhere for the weekend after to do some shelling. The tides will not be low (~ 0.2 in the late afternoon for the couple places I checked), so I was thinking this would be a good opportunity to look for micros. What beaches would be recommended that are either in NC to FL in the US or otherwise in the Caribbean no farther out than the Virgin Islands? That would have a good diversity (I'm a beginner)? Is there much material in Ocacroke, for example? Or is it best in the Keys? Many thanks, Alex Berkeley, California ---------------------------------------------------------------------- [log in to unmask] - a forum for informal discussions on molluscs To leave this list, click on the following web link: http://listserv.uga.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=conch-l&A=1 Type your email address and name in the appropriate box and click leave the list. ----------------------------------------------------------------------
