Janthina shells can be found in the Florida Keys, particularly in shallow waters and along beaches where the ocean currents bring them ashore. Look for them on sandy beaches, especially after storms or high tides, as they may wash up with other marine debris. Popular spots include the shores of Key Largo and Big Pine Key. Snorkeling or diving in areas with floating sargassum seaweed can also yield these unique shells.
