Well heading to Fla. in April planning to bring my detector(when I make my final decision on one) I've never really hunted a beach before, any tips would be a great help to me.
Is there better places than others to hunt
I've heard entryways are good. Do more people hang out near the life guard chairs?
Any other suggestions you guys might have?
I can answer some of those questions all at once,......
Actually you can,.....
You yourself go on a typical sunny day with an average crowd.
Bring a note book and a camera, try to get up where you have a view.
Take photos, take notes, pay attention,......
Be friendly talk to vendors, buy something from them, ask them where the
crowd gathers, take notes, if there is a restaurant with glass windows, on
high ground, view from above both up and down the beach,.....
Eat there, ask the waitress, she looks at that view, she can tell you what days
are busy, where people hang out, the better spots for swimming, etc.
Some guy renting stuff there at the beach,...... go over and talk to him.
You see a guy pushing around a snow cone cart, get a snow cone, talk to him.
You won't waste a search day doing research,........
Because you're gonna go out that evening, after the crowds move on, and hit
the spots that are likely to bear fruit.
Look with your own eyes,....
Talk to locals,.......
This is advise that will increase the odds of you finding items of value.

When it comes to the sand,...... I'm your ma,......I know some stuff
LOL
These scoops are good, there are similar ones as well.

There are guys here that live in, and search the Florida beaches often.
They can help you with choosing a scoop,......
I'm in California, the conditions here are not the same as Florida.
In the city parks I use this,....
At the beach this,.......
Some make their own, most buy off the internet,....
Nah. Kidding. Sounds like you'll be there during or a little after Spring break. Might be Purdy good. Good luck.
