- Minelab Equinox 800
- Primary Interest:
- Metal Detecting
As I understand the laws and rules might be different from area to area and where I live itĀ“s not allowed to go hunting with a detector on the beaches in Sitges, Barcelona due to the high amount of ancient coins on the beaches and they don't want tourists to grab them.. and are better where they are, in the sand I guess.
If I would go hunting on the beach, i would mainly be interested in the tourists losses rather than the ancient and precious metal.. not that itĀ“s not interesting, but.. I will imagine it can be loads of fun things left behind by tourists.
I don't know if that is a law in Catalonia, Barcelona or a local law in Sitges where I live.. even though I like it or not, IĀ“m not going to challenge the rules as I don't want any tickets, the gear taken or give the hobby a bad name. Anyone know more about rules in Catalonia/Barcelona or where to search for such rules?
Anyone know of any groups, clubs, organizations, pages or anything about metal detecting, especially in the Catalonia/Barcelona area? :-)
