A fun place to see some cool gifts and shells. A great place to bring the family. A small museum but they charge no admission.

An interesting museum with unique shells, puffer fish, lamps stuff with seashells and more. Great for getting out of the hot sun for a few minutes or a rainy day

Great place to visit. The gentleman their is very knowledgeable and helpful. Would definitely visit again

We stop here every year before going to our beach house. Its a little small, but has some interesting shells and things like that.

I remember coming here when I was a child. Bringing my daughter here was a great experience. It was both fun and educational. Very friendly staff

I LOVED THIS STORE/MUSEUM. I LOVE SEASHELLS & THEY HAVE A LOT TO CHOOSE FROM. I WAS HERE SEVERAL YEARS AGO. PLANNING TO COME BACK SOON.I REALLY ENJOYED THIS WHOLE AREA. IT WAS FUN SHOPPING.

Looks absolutely awesome! We went at 10 am. Hours say 9-3 Hopefully next time theyll actually be open

Been there forever, theyve sold the property next door so the outside is considerably smaller. Odd little shop but has some cool things in it

Products are from the Philippines! Selling stuff from my home country makes me feel so proud!

Zero interaction from the guy behind the counter. Place looked like it has been stagnant for 50 years. Couldnt even read any of the labels on any of the displays.

Not what I remembered it being. Small quantity of stock and the building is in need of repairs. I was very disappointed.

This is a cute little shop with loads of different types of shells. They have everything from shells to real alligator heads. Even though this place is relatively small they have all of the shells that you would find in a professional place. They have great deals there if you are not planning to spend a good amount of money.

Really awesome rare shells for display and for sale!

We came to this store twice going by the hours posted. Neither time was this place open. Two little boys very disappointed. 2020 coupon book, store hours on door or looking up online hrs are not the same. Maybe a little update would be nice

This place has truly made my experience at peak city New Jersey amazing. The unique merchandise sold is beautiful and I have bought so much of it for my house. They have everything you could imagine and the store is always clean and organized. I came here nearly every single day on my vacation as it truly made me happy. There is not one complaint I can think of about this store. It is a family owned business with a beautiful backstory. The owners are so nice and are always striving to make sure that the customers are happy and enjoy the store. They certainly make the store better and are always smiling. I can not stress enough how much I recommend this store. You wont regret coming!!

Free sea museum is about right. He has some fun shells to see and the purchase ideas are fun.

I had no idea there were so many seashells! This place has very exotic shells from all over the world. Very interesting! You can also get inexpensive souvenirs there as well!

Very helpful staff, a unique little store have loved ot since my childhood.

If this place is going to be closed for the season than they should advertise as such. My wife and I went to OCNJ with our daughter over Labor Day weekend and we drove past this place on Saturday and Sunday because their hours posted online said they were open. At least post a sign large enough for vehicles passing by.. We parked our car and walked towards the building both days hoping the lights would be on and they would be open but both times the place looked abandoned and the lights were off.. Total waste of our time.

Its a fun thing to do on a rainy day. There is a lot to see even though it is not a large place. It is actually a store set up like a museum. You can buy almost everything they have. There are even some neat photo ops.

Unusual shells, lots to see and purchase, reasonably priced items, friendly helpful proprietor. Will visit again every trip to Ocean City.

Cute little local shop, museum had a great selection of shells, alligators, fish from all over (my oldest son loved it), and you can buy a variety of shells and items made of shells. The shark jaw was the best! Thanks!

One of my favorite shops to visit in NJ. Cant find another place like it! Family business with interesting finds!

Interesting finds if you are passing by, but dont base youre day around it! You can scan the store in 15 minutes

Pricey, but worthwhile. Kids love this store. Be sure to have a cash budget planned or discussed before entering. There is even tempting stuff for us adults.

Great selection of shells for sale. Wonderful displays. Friendly staff. Worth the visit every time.

Awesome little place! Great spot for gifts for people! Great atmosphere super great people! Stop by and check it out!

Nice small business cool artifacts and some really lovely shells 🐚 you can buy and items foryour new crab pet

...not exactly a Museum, more of an institution. Weve been wandering in to take our picture in the ..shark jaws... every summer for well over 20 years.Its truly a one-of-a-kind place!

This is not a museum, it is an over priced shell store. The shark jaw was cool, but the rest of the store was run down. Would not go back or advise anyone to go.

Delivered UPS to them and they are really fine people

Love this place. So many shells to choose from. Knowledgeable staff. Other items too, books, lamps, puzzles and of course hermit crabs!!

Should not be called a museum---nearly everything is for sale, and most of it cheap baskets of shells--really just a store for tourists. There are some glass cases of shells from around the world, but many are illegible and hard to read. Also pretty run down with dirty carpeting. Good concept but not executed well, perhaps it was better in its earlier days.

Don’t go there!! My son and I were looking around, and he saw coloring pages ( that were printed off of google) and he wanted one so I grabbed one and put it in the bag. When we were finished looking around we were getting ready to go out the front door, the gentleman/ owner stopped me and asked if I put one of the papers in my bag? I did cuz I thought they were free for kids, NO they were a dollar, so I was going to put it back, and since I folded it he made me pay for a 1.00 printed coloring page off of google! He was soo rude!! If u go there make sure ur kids don’t touch anything u will make u pay!!!! Even if it’s a dollar!

This place is the definition of a perfect beach store. They have everything ranging from hermit crabs to awesome decor for the house. Its not only for parents but also a great place for the kids to look around. The owener is so unbelievably kind and is so warming. My friend and I have come every single day this week, the real reason we wake up is to come here ... Right when you walk in you are greated with the warmest smiles. Highly recommended!! The beautiful backstory of the family own store makes this place even better than it truly already is. If you come you will probably so my friend and I since were here every single day ahah!!

NOT a museum. Just a sad, dusty gift shop with a lot of dead ocean creatures for sale in pathetic trinkets that were once beautiful thriving living animals. Very misleading and disappointing. Advertises falsely to draw people in. Gross.

Awesome place! Contains some awesome rocks and minerals along with some other assorted curios

An amazing store all kinds of things in it and you can buy some of the coolest things their

It was a small place, but on a rainy day it gave me and my family something fun to do. They also have lots of sea shells and other goodies for sale. Dont forget to go out the back door and take a picture with the huge shark jaws!

Lots of nice seashell art and crafts.

If your looking for something to do in OC. Stop by and check out the coolest shells youll ever see. They have massive shark jaws too!!

Interesting concept but im 99% sure all the shells were plastic

Not really much of a museum. Its more of a nice little seashell shop.

Not many people know its there but worth a quick trip

Cool place to visit. My children enjoyed seeing the crabs.

Nice if you like shells. They had a lot of them

Great place for the kids. Very quaint and not too cheesy.

It was closed by the time we got there, it look good through the windows

This is a store, not a museum. Its fine, if a bit small.

Great for a rainy day. Alot of unique little pieces.

Very unique and interesting sea items

Fine little place, lots of great little gifts from the sea, and Hermit Crabs.

A place very young children would enjoy

Unique shells from around the world, friendly staff. No air conditioning

This small, hidden seashell museum and shop is a must-see when visiting Ocean City. You can find seashells of all kinds, including rare and fossils.

It was a great time we enjoyed it. But was very unorganized

A cute little shop, worthy of a visit.

Everything to do with shells from all over the world. Free to get in......amusing little place

Very cute place for shell seekers!

Good stop for the kids

Very nice little shop

Prices were too high. We found same type of shells on the boardwalk for less

Nice place.

Fun place

Pretty kool!

Quite a little wonderland

We go every year!

Awesome and enjoyable!

Great place

Its a store

A gem.
