Sea Shell City:1 is a second-generation family operated business. The business was started in 1967 with several seashell & souvenir stores in Ocean City, Maryland. Sea Shell City (formally known as Ruth’s Shell Shop) was purchased in 1975. Several years later they sold their Maryland businesses and concentrated solely on Sea Shell City in Fenwick Island, Delaware. In 1997 they opened their web site store so people could shop their store from the comfort of home. They are continually adding new products and nautical décor to their site, so please check back often.
