Charleston's surf town. Erosion at the Washout area exposes shell hash full of teeth - best on a low spring tide.
Prime conditions today. Best window opens around the 1:42 PM low (0.2 ft). Moderate S winds (8 mph); seas 2–3 ft, some stir.
Next 3 days: Next few days look steady — all prime-range. Pick whatever fits your schedule.
Plan around the prime low-tide window. 5.5ft swing · spring tide · low 1:42 PM · 5.60" recent rain · +20 event boost.
Impact on visibility and stir-up over the next 5 days.
The Hunt Score blends tide range, lunar phase, daylight timing, recent stir, wind setup, and surf.
Exceptional. Don't sit on this one.
We are deliberate about which factors to include. These are not currently in the model:
If you think we should add one of these, log a hunt with notes — every rated outcome helps us decide which signals actually predict tooth count.
Walk the Washout area (mid-island) at low tide. Sift shell hash patches.
Multiple public accesses. Free street parking with limits; town pay lots in summer.
Beach surface collecting allowed.
Trophy = headline find · Rare = real score · Uncommon = some trips · Common = most trips.
The beachcomber's bonus round — what else the geology gives up.
