Shells have been used in landscaping and building projects for hundreds of years in the US, since the time of the settlers. Those living near the coast found them themselves with an abundance of leftover shells and quickly realized the material was quite durable and ideal for paving roads and pathways.
Generally small in size, coquina shells come in a nice variety of neutral colors which makes them an excellent choice for covering large areas. As the shells are walked on or driven over, they begin to break down into smaller pieces, dispersing and forming a smooth, strong top layer. This prevents the troughs and furrows that happen in gravel surfaces.
Coquina shells are also great for drainage. Water filters easily through the material and flows into the ground below. No more puddles on concrete or washed-out areas of gravel.
In addition to their beauty and practical application, coquina shells are also a great choice for the environment. As long as the shells are responsibly harvested, they’re a very sustainable resource. And as a natural substance, coquina shells will eventually decompose and benefit the surrounding landscape, instead of harming it like other materials can.
