Friend of mine detected a place by the name of Holmes Beach.
Not sure where it is.
You might do a search.

He did quite well from what I remember.

There are plenty of shipwrecks offshore as htere are here in texas.
The Gulf is full of wrecks.
Just a matter of getting to them.

Bakie, i grew up on the west coast in a little town ( at the time ) called Englewood as a kid and do know all along the beach there would be good.also Venice beach would be a good hunt.that is just north of Englewood. all the beaches in that area would be good. tourists all over the place losing all kinds of things im sure !! Good luck on your hunting and enjoy your time down there.
