“Here, millions of years of sediments from the Coastal Plain cover the Piedmont bedrock and dip down towards the Chesapeake Bay and ultimately the Atlantic Ocean.” Which is why the coast of VA and MD around the Bay are one of the great shark teeth collecting locations in the world.
Excellent--places to go this summer. Never would have thought "Sharks Tooth Island" was a good place to get...shark's teeth. Just drove past Westmoreland State Park the other weekend, but didn't stop.
I found about a hundred teeth in two hours at Purse - but very small ones. Only found 2-3 at Stratford Hall: quite picked over, but what I found was bigger. Calvert Cliffs is about the same. Never been to Sharks Tooth Island.

Where else besides Calvert Cliffs, as Al noted?
Purse State Park, Westmoreland State Park, Sharks Tooth Island, and Stratford Hall beach. The Island requires a permit.
Calvert Cliffs was a great spot for that, particularly after a big storm.
