The site is located about 30 miles from Washington, DC on the Chesapeake Bay.
The beach is easily found using Google Maps and Google Earth.
It is famous for the sharks teeth which wash out of the sediments in the banks of the Chesapeake Bay.
We went on a weekday. I understand that there is now a fee for non-residents on weekends.
The banks are a loose, soft clay and extend for miles.
Lots of marine clams and pectens are visible.

Small teeth can be easily found by sieving the sand on the beach, especially along the lines of pebbles.
Don made some excellent sieves for sifting through the sand.

Don, Annie and Justin stayed near the entrance and stiff found many small teeth.
