Lost Wedding Ring in the Sand Recovered at East Beach Santa Barbara
Lost Wedding Ring Recovered on East Beach: Dave MacDonald, The Ring Finder Santa Barbara
If you’ve lost a ring in Santa Barbara, you’re in luck—Dave MacDonald of The Ring Finders Santa Barbara is your local expert for metal detecting and ring recovery. Last night, I received an urgent text from Joshua, a Bay Area resident visiting his daughter at UC Santa Barbara (UCSB). While enjoying a family day at East Beach, disaster struck: his wife’s platinum wedding ring slipped off into the sand near the high tide line. For locals and visitors alike, losing a ring on Santa Barbara beaches can feel hopeless—but that’s where I come in as DaveTheRingFinder in Santa Barbara.
The Search Begins on East Beach
Joshua explained that he and his wife had frantically searched the sandy stretch for 30 minutes with no success. That’s when their quick-thinking daughter searched online for “ring finder in Santa Barbara” and found me, Dave MacDonald, a proud member of The Ring Finders network serving Santa Barbara, CA. It was late, but time is critical in these situations—rings can sink deeper into the sand or get swept away by tides. I agreed to head out to East Beach right away and told Joshua I’d contact him once I arrived at the spot.
Joshua had marked the suspected location with a stick propped up in the sand. But when I got to East Beach—located along Santa Barbara’s scenic coastline near the UCSB campus—I found not one, but two sticks, spaced about 75 yards apart. This is common in beach recoveries; panic and shifting tides can confuse even the best memory.
Finding the Platinum Ring with Precision
As Santa Barbara’s trusted ring finder, I rely on my Minelab Manticore metal detector and years of experience. I started by gridding the first stick’s location, methodically sweeping the sand for any signal. Nothing turned up, so I moved to the second spot 75 yards down the beach. Halfway through gridding this area, I got a promising mid-tone signal—deeper than surface finds, suggesting the ring had settled into the sand.
Using my CKG scoop, I dug three times, and on the third scoop, I heard that satisfying clang—a sound every ring finder lives for. There, gleaming in the bottom of the scoop, was a stunning platinum wedding ring. Another success for Dave MacDonald, The Ring Finders Santa Barbara!
Reuniting the Ring with Its Owner
I immediately texted Joshua a photo to confirm it was his wife’s ring. His response? An enthusiastic “YES!” He was just 20 minutes away, so we arranged to meet up. Handing over that precious ring was a reminder of why I do this—bringing relief and joy to people in Santa Barbara and beyond.

Rob and his beautiful lady friend were coming in late and as she pulled the apartment key from her purse the car fob popped out as well and they heard it bounce off of the concrete sidewalk and then nothing. They figured it fell into the short wispy bushes and they searched with the lights on their cell phones but could not locate the hidden fob. The next morning they searched again and still no fob. They went online and found theringfinders.com website and gave me a call. Two hours later I met them at their apartment and Rob was positive about the location where the fob dropped so it was a matter of scanning the bushes with my ATMax metal detector and a double check with my Garrett AT Pro pin pointer and BINGO!
They were so happy to have their car fob again and I was happy to be a help and blessing to them.

Lost Gold Ring at a Private School in Tustin, CA… Found in Play Area Wood Chips
Stan Metal Detector Man call or text for prompt mobile metal detecting at your location.. Stan .. 949-500-2136
*** Marlo’s father, Bob called me asking for information on how the ringfinders service works. his daughter had lost a sentimental gold ring at her work place. He bought a metal detector to find the ring in wood chips of a children’s play area. Bob realized quickly that the detector was not able to locate the ring. He had never used a metal detector before, so it just added to the frustration.
We arranged to get on the private school property in the evening after school students were not there. Bob met me there where security people accompanied us to the area of the loss. Marlo was there to explain that one of her young 7 years old students ask to see Marlo’s gold ring. A couple minutes later the little girl had dropped the ring in the wood chips.
It helps a lot to hear the whole story of the loss from the person that lost the item. I turned on my detector and shortly realized why her father was having problems with his detector. There was massive interference with EMI ( electrical magnetic interference ) .. I adjusted my metal detector to tune out the interference. A couple minutes later after digging a coin and a screw, I was able to find the small gold ring, Marlo and her father were very impressed to see how efficient a proper metal detector could find a small gold ring.
Marlo was so happy that her father had found my service to help her find a sentimental ring that was a gift from her mother. Rings have so much meanings for people. I wish I could have found the owners of rings that I have found over the past 50 years. The internet has changed that, now people can find help.

Lost Black Diamond & Titanium Wedding Ring at Kaimana Beach Waikiki…FOUND!!!
This ring find began yesterday when I got a call from David who was on vacation from Middletown, Connecticut and enjoying the day at Kaimana Beach with his lovely wife Sara. While heading out for a swim David’s Black Diamond Titanium ring fell off into the sand just before the reef edge in waist deep water. He actually saw the ring on the bottom momentarily but a wave crashed into him and it was buried from sight by the stirred up sand. David found me on “theringfinders” website and we agreed to meet the next morning at 9 during the low tide. When I arrived I met Sara & David on the beach and David went into the water to show me where to hunt. He had counted 25 paces from the water’s edge which was a brilliant manuever in order to get the most precise location. Most tourists in a panic would not think to do that. I fired up the beast and started gridding around David. Thankfully, the area was sterile and the first target boomed on the Manticore. Upon the second scoop there was David’s unique ring in the scoop. David retrieved the ring from the scoop and we went up to the area where Sara was on the beach. We were going to tell her it was a hopeless situation but I think she could tell immediately that prank wasn’t going to work. A few laughs and handshakes and I was on my way home. Vacation saved! Aloha to David & Sara!
Lost White Gold Diamond Engagement Ring- Found in Grove City, PA by Metal Detecting Specialist Brian Carpenter

I am a ring recovery/metal detecting specialist serving Pittsburgh, Indiana (PA), and most of Western PA. Why rent a metal detector when you can get a trained operator with top of the line equipment at the same time…
I received a text from Madeleine that she had lost her ring is a pasture while building fence. I asked her to give me a call and she provided me with some more information and as luck would have it I was able to head out right away. During our initial conversation she asked me if I ate meat and told me her family had a cattle farm and she would bring me some steaks. So when I was packing up my gear I threw a small cooler in the back, more about that in a bit… About an hour and a half later I met her at the farm where she lost the ring. I looked at the sprawling pastures where she said they had put in about 60 acres or so of fencing. At that point I thought to myself, I am going to be here a while…lol! We talked a bit and I got a few additional bits of information. She had put her ring in her vest pocket with the control for her dog and only removed it from her pocket in two spots and we both thought that logically those could be the places where the ring dropped out. She has also bought a metal detector and walked the fence line but did not check the area where they were working initially. So Madeleine handed me my call out fee and two awesome looking steaks that I deposited in the cooler. She headed out and I started to work.
I started griding the area where they were working with the skid loader. Back and forth I found a few nails, shell casings and smal random pieces of metal. I had gotten a few good sounds but no ring. Then I got another hit and checked again with my pinpointer…nice steady tone on the top. I parted the grass and there was the ring. It had been about 20 minutes to a half hour. I sent Madeleine a text…hope that you haven’t made it too far, with a picture of the ring and jokingly asking if this was hers. However the cell service was terrible and only the first text made it through before my phone rang. She asked what as up and I said oh you only got my first text and then the others came through with the picture and her response – Yes that’s it! We talked for a few minutes about arrangements for her to get the ring and now that the hard work was done I asked her about the old farm house down the road. As anyone who metal detects knows old farm houses are pretty high on the bucket list as permissions and they can be hard to get. So I inquired if I could look around for a bit before heading back down Interstate 79 and I would drop her ring off. She gave me permission but wanted to come up and get the ring as soon as she could. I met her at the old farm house and as you can see from the picture she was smiling as soon as she pulled in. I was happy to have found her ring, especially as quickly as I did and return it. It was a pleasure to meet and help another kind and extremely generous client!
In case you were wondering, I did not find anything other than a few clad coins at the old farm house but the opportunity was awesome. And after doing some research I found out the signifcance of the “steaks”. Madeleine’s family has a wagyu beef farm. To me at the time it did not mean much – the steaks looked great…however after checking things out I now know the significance of wagyu beef (if you don’t know what it is…look it up) and WOW! So while it has been a really busy weekend and I have not had the opportunity to grill up those steak I am really looking forward to doing so and VERY MUCH appreciate the added bonus and generosity!

A couple of years ago Collin’s wife was in their front yard getting ready to pull some weeds and decided to remove her engagement and wedding ring and put them in a small pocket in her jacket to keep them safe. She spent maybe 25 minutes doing yard work and as she was finishing up she reached into her pocket and could only find her engagement ring. That led to another 25 minutes of searching high and low but her lost wedding ring was nowhere to be found.
Fast forward two years and the nagging thought of her lost wedding ring still out there somewhere in her front yard lead them to research “How to find a ring in the grass”! They found my name and number on theringfinders.com website and after hearing their story I showed up the next day to do a search. Collin showed me the small front yard and mentioned that his wife had started pulling weeds in a small mulched area so that is where I opted to start swinging my Deus 2 metal detector. I swung my coil two times and instantly got a signal that indicated a low tone and shallow as well. I kicked some of the mulch aside and low and behold there was a small gold ring just waiting to be recovered and both Collin and I could not believe it had happened so fast! How I thank God for helping me find their lost wedding ring and for being a blessing to them in their time of need.

Tutukaka Ring, “Lost gardening” – Found under the house.
Wayne called me, hoping I would be able to find his lost 50yr old gold wedding ring at Tutukaka.
I headed down from the Bay of Islands straight after work, and was met by an extremely anxious Wayne thanking me for my rapid response.
He took me around the garden, retracing his steps that day – Watering, weeding, clearing a drain, and digging wet grass out from under a lawn mower.
There were several likely spots, cleaning out the drainage ditch was top of the list though.
Wayne had been piling the vegetation on the sides of the drain, and I systematically worked through both the drain and the piles as I worked my way along.
I reached the end of the drain with no luck, and was about to head over to start in the garden, when Wayne remembered he had also been under the house to retrieve some items.
On hands and knees, hands slipping through the loose sand? This was now the next likely spot.
I crawled under, following the fresh tracks Wayne had left as he made his way deeper under the house – undisturbed since he was last under here.
Having cleared his entry path, I moved across to cover his exit route.
Off to the side was a single isolated depression in the sand, where a hand had been outstretched – possibly as he turned around to shuffle his way out.
I swung the coil out over it, and a solid double tone of a very shallow target rang out.
My hand closed on the imprint and as the dry sand filtered out through my fingers, I felt the unmistakable shape of a wedding ring.
Wayne was rapt.
