We all know the benefits of exercise: a healthier heart, stronger bones, improved circulation, and flexibility. The hobby of metal detecting can be both rewarding and enjoyable at the same time. The hobby is fun and has been around for decades and is becoming more and more accessible for everyone to try. People who metal detect find many interesting items, from coins to relics and everything in between. Come enjoy this family friendly tour that is perfect for all ages. We make it easy and simple, just bring the family and let us take care of the rest.
We will meet at the Simmons Island Beach House to go over the agenda for the tour and to make introductions.
We will have a short training session instructing you how to hold and operate the metal detector, handheld wand, and other equipment provided.

We will all drive separately to the next location about a mile away, located at Eichelman Beach, at Eichelman Park. Parking is located on the street or in the public lot by the marina.
This is a beach and park on the Lake Michigan shore with a walking and bike trail and playground. It’s adjacent to Wolfenbuttel Park.
The spacious park is lined with shade trees and there is plenty of space for a picnic or cookout. The playground is a bonus for families looking to spend the whole day outdoors. The beach itself is protected by a small jetty, making it a calmer area for splashing.
