Pick Up Along the Beach Daily
Every few hours, shells will spawn along the beach, so make sure to check frequently!
There is a high possibility that the number of shells that spawn increases over time, and you can only pick up a maximum number of shells if you skip the time.
This requires verification from the walkthrough team.
Summer Shells are Only Available During the Summer Season
A specific seashell called Summer Shell, is only available during summer. You can use them to craft special summer shell-related items.
If you do not want to wait for summer to come around, you can time-travel to the appropiate month.
| Summer Duration | |
|---|---|
| Northern Hemisphere | June 1 to August 31 |
| Southern Hemisphere | December 1 to February 28 |
