It’s Christmas time and The Detecting Duo encounter Santa whilst Metal Detecting the North Beach area around Grayce K. Barck Park of New Smyrna Beach. Santa is in his summer gear out on the beach. We found a lot of coins with some over 30 years old and older!

The beach is a different place and some areas are more difficult to drive on to now even at low tide. The surf is still up and great for surfers along the Atlantic coast.

Metal Detecting New Smyrna Beach after Hurricanes Ian and Nicole. Many of the paths onto the beaches, both driving and walking, are still affected by the Hurricanes. The stand is still cut way down but starting to build back up, slowly.

Both detectors are mostly stock setting with all metal usually turned on. We tend to dig most everything and show what we feel are the most interesting digs.
