My wife and I drove to the Lightening site and met Josh who explained the geology of the pit which we were to dig in. With over a decade of fossil hunting, Josh showed us where and how to dig to take the best advantage of clearing material to minimise damaging possible fossils hiding within. In the first half hour, a tooth was partly exposed and I carefully cleared the soil to reveal a 2 inch tooth. After a clean, the tooth was an Angustiden and in very good condition. A number of smaller teeth came to the party, including a very nice and good sized Snaggletooth in perfect condition. Within the next hour I then revealed the tip of a good sized tooth resting against a whale baleen bone. Careful excavation was required to avoid damaging the tooth and after 2 minutes, the tooth was exhumed from it's resting place after an unknown number of millions of years. The tooth was perfect, a Megalodon, 3 inches in length, perfect root and completely intact, good serrations and a beautiful pattern on the enamel. A magical moment. I highly recommend to anyone with a passion for fossils or a Megalodon enthusiast, to engage Palmetto Fossil Excursions as their ultimate choice. You won't be disappointed.

Drove all the way from Tampa Florida and did not disappoint! Was an awesome time! Found some great teeth and Josh was incredible! Definitely recommend! A must do for any fossil/shark tooth enthusiast!

great time today with Skye at the lightening site. beautiful day, found a 5 inch and a 2 inch meg and a lot of smaller teeth. very exciting. This was a bucket list gift to myself and my daughter. would love to do it again. Learned a lot from Skye and her friend Mark who came and dug . very cool.
