11Overview22Half-Moon Bay is Starsand Island's coastal area and the hub for all fishing and ocean-related activities. The bay is home to the AquaBlue Outpost fishing shop, Starsand Port, the Merchant Ship, and various beach attractions. It also hosts the annual Beach Festival in Summer. The curved coastline is the only place on the island where Glowing Shells can be found, a special collectible used to purchase exclusive blueprints.44Glowing Shells66Glowing Shells are a collectible resource that spawns exclusively along the Half-Moon Bay coastline. They emit a faint glow and can be spotted on the sand, particularly in the evening and at night. Glowing Shells serve as a special currency at Lex Woodworks, where they can be traded for exclusive furniture blueprints and decorative items not available anywhere else. The shells respawn periodically, so check the beach regularly. They are distinct from regular shells and cannot be sold through normal channels.99AquaBlue Outpost1111Owner: Delphin (Fishing Mentor)1313Located on the docks on the right side of Half-Moon Bay.
