Bring a sand sifter
Most successful shark tooth hunters use a sifter to separate teeth from shells and sand.
Go for spectacular sunsets
The beach faces west over clear turquoise water, making evening visits memorable.
Hunt at low tide
The flats extend much further and rocks are easier to navigate when water recedes.
Arrive before 10am
Parking fills quickly, especially on weekends and in summer months.
Expect a narrow, rocky beach
The sand area is small and lined with large boulders; this is not a traditional swimming beach.
