“Shelling?” I kept asking my landlocked Canadian self, when I was told that this is one of the most popular things to do on Captiva Island, one of Florida’s Gulf Coast barrier islands just north of Fort Myers. I found it hard to believe that in today’s fast-paced world of digital multi-tasking, on-demand everything and short-attention-spans-everywhere that people would actually engage in something this, well, analog. Regardless, I would soon have the chance to find out if shelling on Captiva Island was really a thing or not.
