Trust me when I say go EARLY! Parking is very hard to find, and traffic is ridiculous, but so worth it. Blind pass beach is beautiful and if you swim out to the sandbar, you will find shells galore! Found sand dollars, nautilus shells and so much more! Not crowded at all! Spent an entire day here.

This is a great beach for shelling in a beautiful area. Parking is VERY LIMITED & EXPENSIVE. $5/hr.and they will fine you $150 if you don’t have a parking pass on your dash. There can be quite a current here and it’s posted no swimming, but just be very careful. Shelling is best as low tide occurs. Traffic was very congested on Periwinkle ~ 5 pm so we didn’t shop or eat as we had planed to do.
