I received a call from Dinair who had lost her key at Redondo Beach. I let her know I could come right away to help her, and left shortly after.

I got to the beach, and found her. She showed me where she had been, and where she had walked, and I began my search. I began a grid to make sure I covered the area well, finding numerous bits of metal here and there. After about 15 minutes I had Dinair’s key in my scoop. She was happy to have them back so she could drive back home.

Keys Lost On Surf City,NC Beach Found So Owner Didn’t Need To Sleep In Car

  • from Emerald Isle (North Carolina, United States)

Andrew placed his keys on the beach and then placed his shoes over them to mark the spot while he walked the Surf City, NC shoreline.  Upon returning, he grabbed his shoes and headed to his car.  It was about 5:30pm when he realized his keys were now buried in an unmarked location.  Andrew notified me of the lost keys at 7:49 and the tide was coming in.  Unfortunately, I was busy planning a trip out of state and reached out to some trusted friends.  I explained to Andrew of the situation and he was planning to sleep in his car until morning when he could contact a locksmith to make a key to allow him to drive home to Fayetteville, NC.  One of my friends finally came through and headed to find Andrew’s keys.  At 10:15pm I received the above picture of Andrew holding his keys.  They were found in the surf and although wet,  the key fob still worked for him.

Lost Electronic Car Key.. Dockwieler State Beach, Playa Del Rey, CA. .. Recovered from Sand

  • from Newport Beach (California, United States)

Jimmy and his wife Kimberly had come to Dockweiler State Beach to enjoy the evening with a fire on the beach. SoCalif. beaches have 100’s of fire pits on our beaches and they are in most cases very well kept.

That evening Jimmy played frizby with his daughter. He believed his Mercedes electronic key fob with several important keys fell from the pocket of his jacket while running around near the fire pit site.
The next day he returned to the location with a rake. After several hours of raking ( have you ever raked a football field?) Somebody suggested he call TheRingFinders. That’s when I got involved. We met on the beach and he showed me a large ( 1/2 football field size area )

I was sure that I could find it but not sure how long it would take. Sometimes you pick the right place to start your grid and it’s a short search. Jimmy had wanted me to start in one place and his wife was sure it was in another place. They had a dinner reservations so they couldn’t stay.

I can concentrate better on my grid while searching by myself. Thirty minutes later, Bingo ! Keys in the scoop.. His wife was right which made her happy and Jimmy was happy he didn’t have to tell his boss he had lost the work keys. .. It was a good search because I also had a chance to check out my XP Deus in some highly mineralized conditions with a lot of iron bits ( mostly nails ).
I called them with the good news and dropped the keys off at their house.

We don’t write up our no find stories. I have many, if the item isn’t there, it can’t be found. I will try anyway just because I know I can find it, if it’s hiding there. Love the challenge!
