For years, my family rented a cottage on the Chesapeake Bay, near Calvert Cliffs, which are loaded with fossils. You can visit Calvert Cliffs State Park. All of the nearby beaches have shark’s teeth. Here is a field guide to those fossils. There are places all over the world country where you can dig, gather, hunt or mine: Crater Diamonds State Park, Fossil Parks, Pan for Gold, Dig for Gemstones, Find Silver, or Rock Hounding. Whenever I’m at a beach along the coast of Florida, I hunt for shark’s teeth, too. Here are four U.S. locations. Warning! Hunting, panning, or digging are addictive! I cannot walk a beach without hunting for fossils. What do you do with them? We made clay casts. You could make jewelry, too. Fall is ideal for fun home-school fieldtrips. Why not plan a hunt?
