S. C. does not allow beach hunting!
I just glanced at that. Could be wrong , but that is not state sponsored.If you're referring to the State of South Carolina, you'd be wrong. If "S. C." refers to someplace else... well, I dunno. Here's a list of some of the area(s) I'm familiar with... https://lmsmetaldetecting.com/myrtle-beach-detecting-rules.html
Oh, it's totally not Statewide law. Just the opposite, very municipality specific, patchwork that is a PITA to navigate. Here is what I could find to sorta(?) explain it: https://www.mdhtalk.org/cf/city-regulation.cfm?st=SCI just glanced at that. Could be wrong , but that is not state sponsored.

Hopefully Santa Cruz because when detectors are outlawed only outlaws will have detectorsWhat does "S.C." stand for ?
Maybe he ment Southern Ca.What does "S.C." stand for ? Southern CA ? South Carolina ? or .... ?

This is confusing to me. What's the difference, a hole is a hole. " metal shovels are no longer permitted for digging at the beach. Metal sand scoops are permitted while metal detecting". If you backfill your hole it shouldn't matter. Please enlighten me.Here is what I could find to sorta(?) explain it: https://www.mdhtalk.org/cf/city-regulation.cfm?st=SC

I know! That's like saying you can drive through this park, but pickups aren't allowed.Yeah, it makes no sense, right ? So guess why some lawmaker, way-back-when, dreamed up the need to pronounce some sort of distinction between a metal shovel and a metal sand scoop ? You get 3 guesses, and the first two don't count.
