Fort Desoto, at the beach by the fort, not the north or east beach.

The busier beaches never have them. We only find them when there aren't lots of tourists around. We found a bunch last winter (I think in December).

If you really want to collect some nice shells, go down to Sanibel Island.

We were At honeymoon island beach a couple weeks ago and right at the water's edge was more shells than sand - no exaggeration. They were basic shells typically not much bigger than the size of a quarter so maybe not what you're after but there some interesting ones.
