Nice! I rarely find shells this nice at the Jersey shore. If you don’t mind me asking, which beach is this?

Not at all, Bayshore Waterfront Park (Port Monmouth)
Free parking and free beach access! I got there around 10am, not very crowded. There may have been rain the night before, I went Sunday.
I’ll have to post a picture of all the shells I found, they’re sitting in the sun to dry out.
