Where we were, yes, supposedly. We didn't come equipped with anything, so we had to do it the hard way (pick up a bunch of shells in the water and sort by hand). We bumped into a park ranger, who found like 20 in an hour (I only found 4 the whole time we were there). There's a cliff formation there from the Miocene that was a nursery for whales, so there were also lots of sharks (which lose their teeth every 8 days or so). They wash down from the cliffs, go into the ocean, then come back to the shore.
