| Dec 18, 2017 at 20:38 | comment | added | mathewb | Thank you. I'll point out that your link currently doesn't work, but I was able to read through it before the State Dept. updated their sitemap. I was also hoping to find similar materials from the Mexican side of things, but I don't doubt what you've said in regard to removing things from beaches. Given that I didn't have the time to procure licenses from either country, I decided to return our coral and shells back to the ocean. We did end up with a nice collection of sea glass. | |

| Nov 27, 2017 at 16:58 | comment | added | Joe | It might be worth mentioning why coral isn't permitted to be brought back, but most shells are. It's not because of the "do not remove any item from the beach" prohibition (which may apply on some beaches, but doesn't on plenty), but because they want to discourage people defacing coral reefs etc. (which are protected), while taking a few shells is harmless. | |
