Big Shell Beach, Ocean & National Parks Puzzle
Big Shell Beach on Padre Island National Seashore, Padre Island National Seashore (PINS), Corpus Christi, Texas
Big Shell Beach Man O' War is available in a 250, 500, or 1000 piece, artist-signed jigsaw puzzle from the Artist Signature Series.
Head towards Corpus Christi, across the JFK Causeway Bridge, and keep on going south. Keep going beyond the "4x4 Only Beyond This Point" sign after entering Padre Island National Seashore. Eventually, you'll arrive at the little-known yet spectacular Big Shell Beach.
Big Shell Beach is named for reasons that are obvious at first glance. Seashells everywhere. In fact, an entire beach of solid seashells.
At a point of two ocean currents converging, millions of common arc, coquina, cockle, and quahog seashells wash up the beach until it is solid seashell beneath you. Along with seashells, colorful yet dangerous, Man O' War jellyfish are often found, as depicted in this stunning national parks puzzle.
About Big Shell Beach
Big Shell Beach is one of the few solid seashell beaches globally and one of the best beaches for seashell hunting in Texas. Its remoteness and difficulty in accessing means that it is relatively unknown and unvisited. Solitude awaits. If you're planning a trip, here's some great info from the National Parks Service about Big Shell Beach.
