Sea shell beach.

Sea shells are over 5 meters deep here. Tons and tons wash a ashore here. They are considered a renewable resource. Shells are used for pathways, compressed ones are cut into building blocks and kitty liter is made out of the residue.

  2. There is a beach on St. Bart's called "Shell beach" which is just like that. I loved it...until Matt handed me two shells which were beautiful. A few minutes after having them in my hand, they started crawling around!! There were hermit crabs in them!
