There's nothing like diving in the warm sea if you manage to bring some FREE food to your home!

Especially if you borrow GoPro camera from your sister and you have sea just few meters from your home! I'm not a professional but harvested a lot of sea shells in my life! I can also prepare them and enjoy eating them.

I will have more posts like this in next few days, so I will start with shells that you shouldn't pick and eat and I will explain why. Some of them are protected by the law.

For example, these "noble pen shells" or "fan mussels" (Pinna nobilis in Latin).

They are endemic to Mediterranean sea and can grow up to 1.2 meters. In Adriatic sea, this species is considered as endangered so I should avoid them.

You definitely shouldn't pick any mussels from the iron chain that connects buoy with the anchor.

In the sea, iron becomes rusted very fast and those mussels are not best choice to eat. Also those on the buoy! But if you find some on the rocks, don't hesitate to pick them, if they are big enough!

Those "Noah's Ark Shells" are great for eating and they are healthy, also they can be prepared for few minutes! My next foraging post will be about them. Today I haven't brought any tool to separate them from the stone.
