Seashells from the beach as a holiday souvenir can be expensive. Because: In many countries, collecting shells is prohibited because it interferes with a protected ecosystem. Anyone caught risks a fine. This can sometimes be very high.
Anyone who packs mussels from the paradisiacal beach of Paralia Lalaria on the Greek island of Skiathos now risks a fine of up to 1,000 euros, the newspaper ‘Heute’ reports.
But it is not only catching mussels that is punishable in many countries. In Italy, for example, you can also get a fine for packing sand and stones. In Sardinia, for example, there is a risk of fines of up to 3,000 euros.
Information about the bans in the relevant travel country can be found on the Foreign Affairs website.
