Beachcombing is an activity that consists of an individual "combing" (or searching) the beach and
the intertidal zone, looking for things of value, interest or utility. A beachcomber is a person who
participates in the activity of beachcombing.
Despite these general definitions, beachcombing and beachcomber are words with multiple, but
related, meanings that have evolved over time.
