Welcome aboard m8 not got any land myself so I cant help you there, I'm sure some members will help you out. If not you can download a foreshore permit on line & do a bit of beach detecting, good luck and good hunting with your quattro.  Wink

Yup, Foreshore permit will allow you to detect on most beaches, between high and low tide marks.

Only protected areas like wildlife reserves and commercial property would be out of bounds.

Also some beaches like pendine have been used for military explosive tests and smallarms fire so I wouldnt recomment using a detector near somewhere with unexploded ordinance on.

Otherwise the world is your lobster.

Be prepared for close scrutiny from small kids and foreigners on holiday though. Metal detecting is a spectator sport to them.

The Mutant EMU Has Now Landed So Smile Damn It

a good tip that provided by dances with badgers is to carry a bottle top with broken glass in it and when you get the inevitable you should not be doing detecting here dig it out and say if i was not doing this this could have caused some one a nasty injury we all provide a service of cleaning up the beaches and we seem to get nagged bu tourists

I'd suggest Rhos Mountain and have a scan down to the forestry, haven't picked up a great deal - maybe a couple of quid and some 1940's coins but I did find an American coin (1930) which was pretty unusual!
