Wouldn’t be a complete trip without a stop into the Shell Shop. As a child, my Mom would bring me here and allowed me to pick a handful of treasure each summer to supplement my beach finds. Twenty some years later I have a beautiful collection (including rarities that Carol has helped me cultivate the last few years), and I now bring my young daughter in to pick her treasures. Across a few spaces and faces, the Shell Shop is an enduring P-town and Cape staple filled with memorable treasure.

Definitely my kids favorite shop in Provincetown. We visited about 5 times during our week long visit. My 14, 11 and 6 year old all found souvenirs at the shop. So many fun trinkets, bracelets and shells to look at, it made the process of deciding so difficult.

A wonderful and classic tourist attraction that I’ve been visiting for years but despite those years I never realized how lovely the owners were. I visited last week and checked out a few bracelets but when I arrived home from my vacation I realized I left one there. I really liked the bracelet so I decided to look up the shop online and see if it was listed on the website so I could repurchase it. But it wasn’t. So I called the number listed and was greeted by an awesome cashier who informed me that the owner had come to same conclusion I had. She promptly took down my name and address so that she could mail it back to me— free of charge! It was wonderful to be handled with that level of customer service. The bracelet came in the mail fast and they included an extra. Just a really nice store run by really nice people. Swing on by if you’re in the area, please.

Awesome vibes, great music and an extensive collection of seashells. I come here every year and always have a fun experience and never leave empty handed!

They have every shell you can think of from the tiniest baby common shells to huge shells and petrified sharks. Definitely worth a walk in at least. So much to see in so little time. Also they are very smart for connecting the shell shop with the candy store next door, I ended up walking past the candy store to the shell shop but ended up purchasing from the candy store anyway! The workers were very friendly and helped as much as they could. Be careful, though, because one wrong swing of your bag and you might break something.

THE place for shells and other marine crustacean-like odds and ends in P-Town. Small place with a HUGE variety of shells and small toys!

Carol is so so so knowledgeable. She always so helpful in getting the perfect souvenir or gift. I always have to stop in to see what's new in her shop. A must stop when in Provincetown.

Carol knew I liked shark teeth after I picked up some and she was nice enough to let me specially sort through her bag of teeth to let me choose! I got some good ones and appreciate her service that went above and beyond my expectations. The big thing was her patience in dealing with me as I curate only the best shark teeth. These little things in excellent customer service make the grade for a successful business. Bravo

A must see location when visiting p-town! Right in the heart of the town it is hard to miss. I love stopping in and seeing all the new shells every time I visit the Cape. Carol is always so helpful and knowledgeable about her shells!

I placed an order from The Shell Shop on April 4th and still haven’t received my 1 pound order of Dentalium Shells today is April 22nd so after waiting so long I started reading reviews and it looks like The Shell Shop Owner Is Selling smaller than normal Dentalium Shells to customers who are very upset because we intended to buy Big Dentalium Shells like the Post Shows and if we are not getting what we paid for I’d expect a refund but after making my purchase I realized this store has done me wrong before and Didn’t want to acknowledge my last complaint and did not give me my refund back I’m feeling pretty upset after reading all the recent Bad Reviews
