​RIVIERA BEACH_What's the one thing every tourist who comes to Florida wants? Souvenirs, of course! For selection, price and friendliness, it's hard to find a better place to shop for them than Sea Shell City, located at 2100 Broadway in Riviera Beach. Along with shells and coral, you'll also find shirts, signs and knick knacks of every description. They have been in the same location since 1969 -- almost 50 years! Drop in and say hello to Dan or Raymond, the brothers who run the shop. And check out the silver sand dollar necklace ... Pam did!
