Re: sea shells

Absolutely,I have and have never had an issue. Never had anyone question me on it. Just take a few , don't be greedy. Package them up nicely in your carry on. People here will scold you,ignore them. Watch out for the prudes. I wouldn't take a starfish though.

Re: sea shells

You will find alot of "coral" but very rarely any star fish or Sand dollars..although I was told after a storm in September there were many on the beach..this is unusual for Aruba though. I have taken shells and coral back (but make sure they are CLEAN- especially the shells you don't want to bring any unwanted critters home to your house!! Happy shelling...

Re: sea shells

The starfish would be dead and stink to high heaven before you got it home, so please leave the living creatures in their natural environment.
