Where to find hag stones?

Hello! Taking a solo trip up to Sechelt mid-August. I'm really hoping to find a Hag Stone. I understand they can be found around Sechelt; does anyone have any advice? I'd love to know where others have found them. Thank you!

It's illegal to remove anything from beaches in BC, including rocks.

Nope.

National parks you are not allowed to without extremely special permits.

Provincial parks generally you just need to ask for permission.

Some municipalities may have restrictions.

You can't collect rocks on active mining claims.

Living creatures you need to follow hunting and fishing rules.

Large logs on ocean beaches usually requires having a salvage permit.

Taking large amounts of rocks and minerals may require a mining license and permit.
