I find most of my jade by SCUBA diving, although pieces can also be found by walking the numerous beaches. The best time to find jade is after large storms or swells. The pristine clear waters boast abundant sea life. Unfortunately, this strecth of ocean is almost always rough, with sleeper waves that can catch the unsuspecting diver or beachcomber off guard. There is also the ever present White Shark lurking around, and lots of kelp to get tangeled in.

I started this site for fellow jade and other gemstone hounds to showcase their stones and the interesting things they make out of them. I welcome anyone to post pictures of their beautiful gems or stone creations.
