Hunting the rocket coast, Cape Canaveral🚀🛰🛸

[Nickapottamuss]

I now live on the beaches of Cape Canaveral,I live in a nice private community here and I live in the part of the complex where it has a private beach access point right outside my door, with just a short walk down a path covered in the most creepiest trees overgrown the path,wild walk at 2am-5am or so is when it's best for me to hunt the beaches any tips my fellow friends have about beach hunting at dark,iv been metal detecting over 10+ years but lived in Michigan my whole life and tracked old ghost towns or old lumber mills,all land hunting mostly,I live here now and I love the peace of the night, with no one In sight,and if anyone is visiting the area or lives near by an open to those hours I'd love to meet fellow friends in the trade.

Watch out for nesting sea turtles.

on the West Coast, the nests were marked pretty well...concerned with all that red tide that the hatch wont go very well.
dont know about the east coast.
Will the turtles be hatching any day now?

I see quite a few people mding around the Cocoa Beach pier...watch them from the Tiki Bar!

Nick,Are you south of Cape Canaveral or north of it?

The four or five nights during the full moon is great. Many years ago we use to be allowed to drive our 4X4 trucks on an old trail on the topside of the dunes. We would drive with our headlamps off. The full moon will rise between 9:00PM and Midnight during the few days of the full moon and illuminate from high in the sky till sunrise. (This was South of the Canaveral area)

I've been told the night hunting is a good experience on E coast I can remember reading stories of Taffi taking out her son when youger at night MD.

No hatchlings that I know of, eggs are being laid now with only a few nests marked off so far.
I watched two pair lollygagging off shore Fathers day about 5pm while MDing in the Wabasso area. I guess she was waiting till high tide and darkness to make it easier to climb on shore and dig her nest.
