I recently got a call from Glory, a young woman unwinding after weekend classes at Pacifica Graduate Institute near Santa Barbara. She’d been playing volleyball with friends on a grassy field when a powerful spike sent her grandmother’s ring soaring off her finger into the grass. Glory and her friends searched for hours in the Montecito-area hills, but the ring stayed hidden. Desperate, they turned to the internet and found me—Dave MacDonald, the local metal detection specialist—and set up a time for me to help.
I couldn’t make it that day, but I promised Glory I’d arrive at sunrise the next morning. She was nervous about heading back to Berkeley before the search, so I reassured her I’d mail the ring to her once found. At dawn, I arrived in Summerland—just minutes from Carpinteria and Montecito—met the campus security guard, and mapped out a grid pattern to scan with my Minelab Manticore. After three careful passes, I got a sharp high tone. Using my pinpointer, I confirmed a surface target, parted the grass, and there it was: a stunning 24k gold ring nestled in the green.
I showed it to the guard, and we agreed it matched Glory’s description. I snapped a photo, texted it to her, and confirmed it was her grandmother’s ring. Now, it’s safely on its way back to Berkeley, where it belongs!

Yesterday, I got a call from Britany, who was in a panic. Her husband had lost his wedding ring during the Northern LA Boardriders October surf event at Leo Carrillo State Beach in Malibu. He’d stashed the ring inside his wetsuit for safekeeping while competing in the surf. After his set, he peeled off the suit on the beach, and the ring slipped out, disappearing into the dry sand. They knew the rough spot near the shore, so Britany reached out to me—the go-to metal detection expert for finding lost rings in Malibu’s sand and surf.
I headed to Leo Carrillo State Beach, just off Malibu’s stunning coastline, and met them in the sandy area where the ring went missing. With my Minelab detector, I swept the spot, and within a couple of minutes, I got a solid hit. A quick scoop in the dry sand revealed the wedding ring—safe and sound!

The other night, I got a call from Bryn, who was in a bind. He and his wife Camille had spent a sunny day at Solimar Beach in Ventura County, soaking up the sand and surf. But when they got home, Bryn noticed his wedding ring was gone. He remembered where they’d been sitting on the beach, though he’d wandered a bit—making trips around the area—so he wasn’t sure if it was lost in the sand or elsewhere. Time was ticking, but Solimar Beach isn’t a hot spot for other detectorists, so I knew we had a solid shot at ring recovery in Ventura County if it was there.
I arrived at Solimar Beach, zeroed in on their spot, and started gridding the sand with my Minelab Manticore. After a couple of passes, I hit a crisp 54-55 tone—a number that often means a zinc penny, but I had a hunch. I plunged my CKG titanium scoop into the sand, shook it out, and felt something hefty. There it was: a stunning 18k gold hammered men’s wedding ring—one of the most beautiful recoveries I’ve made in Ventura County. I thanked God for the find and called Bryn with the good news. He and Camille were overjoyed, and we set up a meet to reunite him with his ring.

Late Monday night, I got a call from Dyana, frantic about her husband Richard’s wedding band. They’d been at East Beach in Santa Barbara when Richard, trying to protect his ring, tucked it into the cupholder of his beach chair before swimming. Packing up to head back to the Hilton across the street, he forgot it was there—and the ring flew into the dry sand. East Beach is a hot spot for detectorists, so time was critical for lost ring recovery in Santa Barbara. I promised to meet them at 6 a.m. the next day to search East Beach’s sands.
I arrived at East Beach—just one of Santa Barbara’s gems like Hendry’s Beach, Bates Beach, and Butterfly Beach—and met Dyana near their spot. She pointed out the area, and I started a grid search with my Minelab Manticore. The beach had been groomed overnight, and the sand was eerily quiet—raising fears a sweeper or another detectorist had claimed it. Then, a clear tone rang out. One quick dig with my CKG sand scoop, and Richard’s wedding band was in my hand! Dyana’s relief was instant—it was their one-year anniversary, and losing the ring at East Beach had nearly spoiled it.

Lost Wedding Ring Recovered at Low Tide on Ledbetter Beach Santa Barbara

Vacationing in Santa Barbara is a dream—until it isn’t. Kate and Dominick from England were enjoying a day at Leadbetter Beach when a football toss in the water sent his platinum wedding ring of 19 years flying into the ocean. Two hours of frantic searching and a borrowed metal detector left them defeated, convinced it was gone forever. That is, until a local Santa Barbara Facebook group pointed them to me—Dave MacDonald, the Ringfinder and metal detecting expert for lost ring recovery in Santa Barbara.
Kate called me Tuesday morning, explaining the ring vanished Sunday in the surf near Leadbetter Beach. She gave me the general spot, and I told her low tide was key—our best shot was Wednesday at 4:30 a.m., with a 0.7 tide. The family was leaving Tuesday, so Kate dropped a map pin for me—from East Beach to Hammonds Beach, I’ve got Santa Barbara covered—and trusted me to find it. At 4:30 a.m., I hit Leadbetter Beach, gridding the water’s edge with my Minelab Manticore. After digging trash for 30 minutes, I got a clean signal right where the waves lapped. One scoop, a headlamp check, and that sweet clank—Dominick’s heavy platinum ring was mine!
I texted Kate photos for confirmation, then headed to recover a necklace at Carpinteria State Beach. Could it be another platinum ring lost at Leadbetter? Unlikely. An hour later, Kate asked if her name was inscribed inside. With daylight breaking over Santa Barbara, I checked—there it was. The right ring was soon on its way back to England! From Thousand Steps Beach to Mesa Lane Beach, I recover rings wherever they’re lost.
For lost ring recovery in Santa Barbara at East Beach, Hendry’s Beach, Bates Beach, Loon Point Beach, Leadbetter Beach, Butterfly Beach, Summerland Beach, Miramar Beach, Thousand Steps Beach, Mesa Lane Beach, or Hammonds Beach, I’m Santa Barbara’s top choice.

This morning, I got a call from Lauren, a Chicago visitor who’d been enjoying Broad Beach in Malibu with her family the day before. To protect her wedding ring while swimming, she’d placed it in the cupholder of a beach chair. But when the chair was moved, the ring flew into the sand. Hours of searching on hands and knees across Broad Beach—near spots like Zuma Beach and Point Dume Beach—left them empty-handed and frustrated. That’s when they turned to me, Dave MacDonald, for expert lost ring recovery in Malibu.
I met Lauren’s husband, Daniel, at the Broad Beach path entrance, and we headed to their estimated spot. Armed with my Minelab Manticore—perfect for ring recovery—I gridded the sand methodically. The beach was quiet, unlike busy Leo Carrillo State Beach or El Matador Beach, but I expanded my search toward the high tide line. Then, a strong signal pinged just inches from the water’s edge. One quick scoop, and Lauren’s wedding ring was back in hand—a swift win for lost ring recovery in Malibu!

Nearly two years ago, I helped a client recover her rings at Carpinteria State Beach after they fell while she moved her chair during a camping trip. After every recovery, I wish folks well and jokingly say I hope not to see them again—at least not for lost jewelry! Fast forward to today, and that same client called me from almost the exact spot at Carpinteria State Beach. This time, her young son was the culprit. She’d set her rings on a small table to apply sunscreen, and he grabbed them to bring to her—only to drop one in the sand.
Two years back, she’d spent hours with a rented metal detector, fumbling to find her rings. Not this time—she knew to call me, Dave MacDonald, at 805-290-5009 right away. We shared a laugh about her repeat business, and I promised to be there within the hour for another lost ring recovery at Carpinteria State Beach.
