I took my kids to a place called Sharktooth Island last weekend and dug 99 shark teeth.



Also made a YouTube video of our event.

Nice. Looks like you have some colonial pipe stems there too.

Savannah, GA is one of the greatest cities in our Union. Been there a few times and each time, there's something different!

My two oldest live about 45 minutes west of Savannah, both have boats for fishing but on family outings Shark Tooth island is always on the agenda. There are other islands / beaches that give up teeth, my grandkids love looking for them, even bought them a gold panning sifter to help. My grandson found what looks like half a Meg tooth, let me see if I can find a picture.

Nice find! Looks like most of them have been there for a very long time. Because from white it became gray, black and brown. Interesting to know that the sediment prevents oxygen and destructive bacteria from reaching the tooth, and it fossilizes it!

We vacationed on Tybee last summer and made a trip to Shark Tooth Island. Lots of fun! Nice finds!
