Bibbey's Shell Shop is an original piece of Imperial Beach history and a classic, quaint shop. It is one of the last real shell shops left on the California coast. The business has shells, sand dollars, stones, geodes, fossils, jewelry, and tons of different shells and souvenirs from around the world. It is excellent for tourists to bring some beach home and excellent for crafting. The owner and staff are friendly, knowledgeable, kind, generous, and very nice people. It is always a great place to find treasures at a great price. Many customers state that every visit to San Diego will include a stop here.
We stop there every time we come to town. Awsome people too
