Looking for SouthDown in Miami

[Katabyss]

I'm lookin for some SouthDown in the southern miami area, i'm willing to travel about 200miles or so for some.. if there are any local stores that carry can you please help me out? i've checked 3 or 4 HD's in the area but to no luck but i did find a very white play sand.. i've read some posts on silica sands and this one was very white.. It wasn't quickcrete but something else, it started with a "B" anyone? thanks!

Katabyss,
Just a curious question. With all the wholesalers around, and your access to Bear Cut, etc.
Why are you looking for SouthDown? Why not just use all LS?

Just drive to Marathon (about 96 miles from miami) or to Key Largo (about 35 miles from miami) put on a mask and snorkel and go get some of the real stuff!!!

Go to Key Biscayne and get some at one of the sandbanks... you'll get all sorts of critters too!!!

That's the LS all the LFSs sell here

Well i thought it was illegal to go to the beach and start haulin off sand? Is there certain places to go and do this at? have you guys gone to the beach and actually done this?

Nawwwww!
But if I did. I would go to Crandon Park at low tide.

Then there's always the wholesalers and cash.

Last i heard the whole keys have become a protected park. besides you should get it off shore not from the beach area. There is a place that is based in Miami. Sells Southdown for $11 a bag. Let me know if you are intersted and i will tell you the name.

i will find out about the legality. as far as i can remember, just about everything except rare things and liverock are fair game.
as for the SD in miami, been looking for it for the last 8 months, still have not found it... hard to beleive seeing we are next door to the caribbean
