Shells, like gold, are where you find them. But certain shells live in well defined areas and habitats. Definite techniques
must be developed for working each of the various habitats of the many species of shells found on Oahu. Probably the most
difficult habitat to work are the large coral heads.
Isolated coral heads located in sand flats, or in sloping hard pan areas, are much more apt to produce good shelling than
areas covered with windrows of coral formations. A good shelling area is shown in the photo.
Area 6 is basically a flat coral plain with a silty bottom with intermittent medium and large coral heads and a few scattered
coral slabs. A great deal of the area was ruined for shelling when I blasted the mooring trenches across the area to
facilitate anchoring the tankers in this mooring. The western end and seaward side still offer excellent collecting for scuba
divers.
Area 7 is nearly a continuation of Area 6 except for the greater amount of thick coral rubble. Collecting in this area is not
as good and is limited to the more common shells. The seaward edge, in about 20 fathoms, will produce many of the more rare
bivalves such as listed for Area 6.
