beach

Hi y'all, New to the site but starting to get into searching for old relics/coins/jewelry what have you. Im on Martha's Vineyard for the next week visiting in-laws (so trying to get out of the house) and wasn't able to bring a metal detector with me from the West Coast. Does anyone happen...

Does anyone have any experience with hunting beaches in Mass? For example the Plymouth area beaches (Long beach, White Horse Beach, even Duxbury Beach). I've read all the posted rules and regs, but nothing is definitive for MD'ing. I'm aware that any beaches that are state parks/landmarks are...

Went to spring maid pier in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina on staturday, and found out the beach was very well maintained or had been hunted very heavily. There were not many targets so that is why we only found 93 cents 🤣. The most interesting find was what looked like a dog tag about 4 inches...

Hey everyone - was hoping to find a buddy to metal detect with in the Santa Cruz area. I've been successful in dry sand, but have a hard time in the wet. Run an AT Pro. I've done the ground balancing manually and automatically, and seem to get targets every few feet. Found some coins and other...

It's time to register for the ECRDA's "Pieces of 8" beach hunt -- in Ocean City NJ, May 20 & 21. We're inviting detectorists from all over to join us at our rain-or-shine 8th annual hunt! As always, we'll have three adult hunts each day, and our ever-popular Kids Hunt on Saturday (for the...

Hi i am looking for a low budjet Metaldetector. I am new to the hobie and looking for a machine to hunt on the beach mostly After a reasearch i end up on those two machines. Could somebody give me an advice for which of those two to buy? I am open to other suggestions on the same budjet...

Happy New Year! Forgive me if there is an existing thread for this topic, and/or move this to an appropriate page. I have been watching & reading videos, threads and metal detecting sites looking for reviews of sand scoops including homemade jobbies using PVC sewer fittings, (of which I have...

Hello all, This website is basically my last hope in having help locating a family heirloom on the beach. Unfortunately, we do not know the which public access the ring was lost at but we do know that it was lost in around N. Topsail island beach. The ring was actually lost in the waves on the...

Dug this up about a foot under the sand on a South Florida intracoastal park that's been around since the 1950's. It was hitting on mid range very steady. I'd appreciate any feedback!:icon_thumright:

I've spent the last week reading TONS of posts and have some questions. I want a detector for California beaches. Probably only in wet sand and shallow water. I wouldn't be apposed to something that is fully submersible because I could see myself getting into underwater detecting. My research...

Hey Guys! My name is Jon originally from South Dakota but currently in Orange County CA. I've considered myself a treasure hunter my entire life but really want to spend some serious time exploring/hunting California. In South Dakota i've done a little bit of everything. Metal detecting, gold...

The other week I made 2 beach scoops for a grand total of about $22. One is for myself (obviously) and the other is intended to be for my father or anyone else wanting to go. Had my first trial of use Wednesday and it worked surprisingly well. It was able to dig into the sand and sift all of the...

This is my first post of the forum and will certainly not be my last. I recently just got back into the hobby that I fell in love with as a child. I will be primarily doing beach and shallow water hunting with some old house and farm land hunting in between. Hope to indulge in conversation with...

I've been metal detecting the OBX beaches for a few years now and typically returned with some pocket change and one or two cool finds. This week however blew all of that out of the water. I switched out my White's V3i for a newly acquired Minelab Excalibur II and the difference is amazing. Even...

So I exclusively hunt on beaches here in NY. I mainly get a lot of loose change, but I would like to get some rings now and then. My issue is that on the AT pro, the range for gold (50-60) is also the same range for pull tabs. As you can imagine, there are thousands of pull tabs on the beach...

Im sorry i lost most of the clips from this hunt it was a few months ago and i did make some good finds which are in the wrap up video thank you so much for checking it out and i hope you enjoy the video!

Hey everyone, I'm looking to purchase a new detector to hunt the beaches of North Carolina/ outer banks. Would like it to be water proof and great in the sand. I have heard so many different thoughts on what detector to get.. Some saying AT PRO is great some saying stay away, some saying go for...

Hi all, I found this little earring yesterday on a Boston north shore beach yesterday. It was so small that my pinpointer (Garrett Pro Pointer AT) was having some difficulty regularly finding it in the sand. It was intermittent like a small piece of foil. Imagine my surprise when a diamond...

if I wanted to find rings where would be the best beach in Oregon that I would have the most luck of finding at the least one ring? Thanks so much for the help

Darn, I thought my scoop was in bad shape before now. After spending about 30 hrs digging in stones and sand the consistency of old cement the back side of my heavy duty aluminum scoop was caved in, making emptying it difficult. Unfortunately, my solutions really made things worse: I decided...
