How to find a lost ring or jewelry on the beach. 

Screenshot this post, and save this post for future reference! (hopefully, you will never have to use the information listed below. 

1st – Note the location you are in.  If you have your cell phone with you get the GPS coordinates or mark your location in Google Maps.

2nd – Note the time of day. It is needed to reference tide charts. 

2nd –  Take pictures of the area. Pictures of what is behind you, in front of you, what is near you. Note how far away from the water and wet sand you are. Not just close-up pictures, some landscape pictures are a big help when I and on-site looking for the correct area. 

3rd – Mark the area with something. A chair, log, cluster of shells. 

4th – Call a professional Metal Detectorist. 856-433-0719 (Dave the Metal Detecting Man) is a GREAT resource in Southern NJ, Jersey Shore, Northern Delaware, and South Eastern Pennsylvania. 

I have had many successful recoveries in Atlantic City, Ventnor, Margate, Ocean City, Sea Isle City, Avalon, Stone Harbor, Wildwood, Cape May, Long Beach Island, Beach Haven, Surf City, Barnegat Light, and many other shore locations. 

Not many detectorists can say they have had professional football players trust them in finding their NFC Championship ring. I have found items that were lost for more than 30 years. 

I am a 1st responder/paramedic that loves helping others. I have assisted law enforcement in recovering items to help convict criminals. The Atlantic County & Cape May County prosecutors have called for my services. 

I hope you don’t have to use my services, but if you do, give me a call!
