How to Find a Lost Ring in the Sand in Port Hueneme and Surrounding Beaches with DaveTheRingFinder
Losing a wedding ring is devastating, especially in a restricted spot like the Naval Station Pt. Mugu beach near Port Hueneme. When Michael called DaveTheRingFinder about his lost ring, I knew my metal detecting skills could help. I specialize in how to find a lost ring in the sand, and I was ready to assist in Port Hueneme and its surrounding beaches.
After securing permission to enter the restricted beach, we met at the missile park two days later to start the search. Working in a secure area posed challenges, but I was committed to recovering Michael’s ring. We began on the south side of the Port Hueneme beach, but the sand stayed silent. Shifting our grid north, my metal detector finally sang—a strong tone led me to dig deep, revealing Michael’s wedding ring buried in the sand.
Security rules blocked a photo, but Michael’s relief was clear. As DaveTheRingFinder, it was a privilege to help an Armed Services member reclaim such a meaningful treasure. To all military members in Port Hueneme and beyond—your service inspires me every day.

Lost and Found Ring Cahoon Hollow Beach National Seashore Wellfleet, Massachusetts

  • from Cape Cod (Massachusetts, United States)

If you leave 3 guys alone on the beach to have fun in the sun on Cape Cod…What can go wrong?

Sharks for one, sunburn for two and the dreaded lost wedding band for number three. Surely the three physically fit men should be able to find a very special wedding band in a bit of sand. But from the time of loss to the setting of the sun, it proved to be too big a task for them. It was now time for a woman to take charge.

Allissa, Brenton’s wife, reach out to a local detecting group in my home state of Connecticut. She was given good information; get in touch a group called TheRingFinders.com. Within a half an hour after receiving an E-mail I had a game plan set into motion. Being the loss occurred on Federal Property and it is illegal to detect there, special permission would be required from the proper authority. But with Corvid-19 closures in force it seemed to be impossible. No one was answering phone calls or E-mails. A call to the local police did yield a number to call at the National Park Service Headquarters.

Brenton requested permission to let “Ring Finders” utilize metal detectors during a specific time and for the specific lost ring. It took almost 24 hours of searching to obtain the permission. Brenton did not give up and was responsible for our search to happen legally during the next daytime low-tide. On the beach two Ring Finders, myself and Luke, were ready and with all the given information and our gear. It did not take long, maybe 5 minutes and the search was over, Brenton had his ring back on his finger.

It was great to see the three guys go from doubtful of to being amazed of how two guys would come out, look for a lost ring, find and return it within such a short time. Then it came to light, Brenton’s lucky number is 33. This return for me was number 233! It is our hobby that brings unique people that we would otherwise not have met into our life and proves good thing can come from an adverse situation. We love what we do.

Several people deserve big Thank You including Allissa for contacting TheRingFinders.com, all 3 guys for marking the area of loss, the two Ring Finders and especially the Supervisory Ranger for granting permission to conduct the search on Federal Property. OH, I forgot special Thank You goes to Benton for making this story happen. He accomplished the near impossible.

Joe was spending a relaxing day at the beach and decided to go for a swim. Regularly, Joe removes his wedding ring and necklace and then places the ring on the necklace. His wife agreed to hold both.

Lost ring Cape May, New Jersey, FOUND!

  • from Cape May (New Jersey, United States)

Lost rings Wildwood Crest, New Jersey, FOUND!

  • from Cape May (New Jersey, United States)

Received a call yesterday late morning about a lost wedding ring set. Jess explained that she had taken her ring, which was actually three rings fused together, off and placed it in her wallet which was then placed in her beach bag. At some point during the day she thought one of her kids may have knocked it out of the purse while looking for money for the ice cream man, but neither she or her kids were sure. She had already returned home to PA before realizing that the ring was missing. Jess was able to provide some location details and given the time of day she called and it’s possible location I thought it would be best to try for it after the crowds had cleared. Took a ride over later in the afternoon and recovered the platinum diamond ring in about 20 minutes. 

Comments from Jess: « I can not explain my emotions after coming home and realizing that my wedding ring was gone. I kept trying to trace every step and thing I did and just kept searching thinking it would appear. I don’t like to wear my ring on the beach because it gets so dirty but this has been a big lesson for sure. I literally was so sick in my stomach all day yesterday and honestly thought it was gone for good as the chances of finding it were so slim. Thank goodness I found Jeff and his team. He was professional, asked the right questions, and got the job done! He was incredible and I could never thank him enough! »

  

How to Find a Lost Ring in the Sand at Oxnard Beach, Silverstrand Beach, and Hollywood Beach

  • from Santa Barbara (California, United States)
How to Find a Lost Ring in the Sand at Oxnard Beach, Silverstrand Beach, and Hollywood Beach
Losing a wedding ring in the shifting sands of Oxnard Beach, Silverstrand Beach, or Hollywood Beach can feel overwhelming, like searching for a needle in a haystack. When Jason contacted me this morning on behalf of his friend Steve, who had lost his cherished ring in the wet sand, I knew quick action was critical. As Dave, The Ring Finder, a proud member of www.theRingfinders.com, I understand that the unique slopes of these Ventura County beaches—Oxnard, Silverstrand, and Hollywood—mean a single high tide can bury a ring deep in the sand in just one cycle. With no time to waste, I headed to the beach to start the search.
Steve explained how his ring slipped off while he was tossing a stick toward the water, a common scenario at these lively coastal spots. I began by carefully gridding the area, focusing on the wet sand zones where the tides at Oxnard Beach, Silverstrand Beach, and Hollywood Beach could have carried the ring. Initial sweeps turned up nothing, but I adjusted my approach, moving closer to the water’s edge where the ring was most likely to have settled. Within minutes, my metal detector let out a promising signal. With a swift scoop, I dug into the sand and pulled out Steve’s lost ring, gleaming in the sunlight. The relief and joy on his face as I handed it back were unforgettable.
These beaches, with their beauty and constant tidal shifts, can make losing a ring a stressful ordeal—but that’s where professional metal detection comes in. Whether it’s the expansive shores of Oxnard Beach, the vibrant Silverstrand Beach, or the bustling Hollywood Beach, I’m here to help. As Dave, The Ring Finder, I specialize in recovering lost treasures and reuniting them with their owners. If you’ve lost a ring or any precious item in the sand, don’t give up hope.

Beautiful, Sentimental Gold Wedding Band found and returned in Delaware County, PA

  • from Philadelphia (Pennsylvania, United States)

Received and email from Jestine on June 17, 2020 asking for help with a lost ring. Apparently she was holding the beautiful, vintage gold band for a friend while playing Cornhole in her backyard. Turns out the ring was a family heirloom that went back generations. After purchasing a metal detector and trying to find the ring herself over the course of several hours she gave up and consulted the Ring Finders directory. After getting the call and heading in her direction, she lives in Aldan, PA, I gave a call to my bud and fellow Ring Finder, John Favano to see if he wanted to join me for the search. We met there 30 minutes later and met Jestine in her backyard….it was a small backyard with high grass. She walked us through step by step what happened with the lost ring and we got to work. I had barely turned my machine on when I saw a funny smile on John’s face…it took him less then 3 minutes to find the ring! It was a beauty as was Jestine’s reaction when we put it back in her hand.

 

Lost gold ring found in Woodcliff Lake,NJ

  • from Mahwah (New Jersey, United States)

Bob was cleaning the gutters on his house in November, 2019. As he grabbed handfuls of leaves and threw them down, he felt his 14 Carat gold wedding band slip off his finger. He searched for the ring and even rented a metal detector to try and locate it.

His wife found me through the Ringfinder site and we agreed to a time for me to look. After one 2 hour session, I had no luck locating the ring.

I returned and broadened my search to be further from the house. Within 1/2 an hour I received a strong signal and there 35 ft. From the house I found the ring about 2 inches below the soil.

They were elated to get the ring back ! Another recovery by the Ringfinders!!

Lost Ring and Shark Visit – Gulf Shores, AL – FOUND!

  • from Orange Beach (Alabama, United States)

I was so tired yesterday that I didn’t even write up the story but the day was totally worth it. The night before I received a call from Angel who was down from Tennessee with her fiancé celebrating their engagement in Gulf Shores. She explained that she had been out in about thigh deep water throwing a football when her ring came off. At least she assumed it was in the Gulf, like most people, she wasn’t aware that it was gone until later that day. I agreed that I would come the next day but it would have to be at Sunrise because I was working that day and would have to find it before then. I pulled into the condo at 5:45am after an hour drive and Angel was already eagerly waiting for me in the parking lot. As we walked down to the beach and she explained where she thought it was, I quickly learned that she is just a lovely person and I said a quick prayer for help finding the ring. I got out in the Gulf and it was just awesome. The sun was beginning to peak over the horizon and the water was clear and calm. I was really enjoying myself and before long Angel’s fiancé joined her on the beach. I was explaining about the need to dig the occasional coin when I saw movement from my right. It was a small shark maybe a bit over 4ft long and he came right up to me about arms length. He just kind of eyeballed me and said hello and I thought that it was a great sign. I proceeded to do my first search pattern left to right with no luck. I then went into super detective mode and scoured the entire area again the other way going North and South. As I was wrapping up about an hour later I started to get worried. That ring was not where they thought it was. I walked up and suggested that we move some of the chairs around and let me grid off the beach. I could see Angel getting really worried so I tried to stay upbeat. When I was done with the beach, I told her that I wasn’t giving up yet so she couldn’t either. I told her to think about other areas it could be while I went back into the water and expanded my search west. I was on only my second pass when I got the unmistakable sound of gold. It was such a good signal that I got their attention and they watched eagerly as sure enough I had it in my scoop. There were so many shells it was hard to see until finally I saw a flash of diamond. I gave them a big smile and a thumbs up. It’s the first time I have had to fend off a couple with my metal detector and back away saying “Don’t hug me, don’t hug me”. 😃 Luckily, social distancing won out and as they hugged each other and cried a bit, I promised that one of these days I might make it up to Nashville post Covid and I would gladly take those hugs. Until then, Angel, I am so glad I was able to help you two out and I wish you all the very best! 💍
