Looking for sea shells at night during low tide. Exploring the dark looking for beach treasures.

Looking for sea shells at night is something I've been wanting to try. I'm usually out on the beach early, but getting there before the sun even comes up would make me the only person on the beach right? Nope! There were other people with their flashlights out there. I'm not sure if they were beachcombing (good idea) or just going for a walk (but you can't see anything!) but I was ALMOST completely alone with my little experiment.

I picked a day that had a decent low tide a few hours before sunrise. I wanted to be out there for a while to see if there was really any benefit of looking for sea shells at night and being out there in the dark WAY before anyone else was out there. I would do this again if there was a storm that had some through so I could guarantee that I'd be out there first finding goodies but otherwise, I'd really much rather just get to the beach early and do my walk by the light of the sun and not a headlamp.

It was cool to try and I know what to expect should I do it again. I'll just have to see if the summer is going to bring me more good conditions to go looking for sea shells at night.
