CASPERSON’S SHARK WALKS…ECOGREEN TOURS

Pristine white sand beaches on their gulf sides and dense mangrove forests to the east display surprisingly diverse ecosystems along with North America’s best shelling, great biking/hiking trails, and acre upon acre of wildlife sanctuary. In fact, Casperson’s Beach is so eco-minded that laws prevent buildings or constructed along its shoreline ever from happening! Nearly 400 species of multi-colored seashells found in the region range from the common scallop to the rare brown speckled junonia along with pre-historic horse, mastodon and a variety of sharks teeth. Seashells are often hidden just beneath the surface of sand where the surf breaks, and can be collected by wading, scooping or snorkeling along the surf line. The gradual slope of the gulf acts like a ramp to encourage shells to roll onto the beach – especially when driven in by northwestern storm fronts. Such storms are common in December and January when cold fronts pass through. While there is never a bad time to shell, optimum collecting occurs in early morning, low tide, and after storms. Escape to an oasis of luxury and tranquility... wide, uncrowned beaches decorated with beautiful seashells and sharks teeth... serene natural surroundings... panoramic views of the Gulf of Mexico... magnificent sunsets... all yours to enjoy on a Casperson’s Beach walk. We talk the talk while you walk the walk, from the Indian mound park out to along the beach line of Casperson’s Beach, rated as one of the worlds most unspoiled beaches; National Geographic. Offering gliding pelicans to diving dolphins and ending with a cool breeze as you sip on a snack from the infamous “Sharky’s on the Pier.” Shelling bags & Scoops Provided.
