Sea Shell City is just a short drive South of Mackinaw City and is home to a shell that is one of the worlds Largest Clams. But do they really like to eat humans? 

We have all seen the movies with divers looking for pearls. The diver moves in, fixated in the pearls shiny exterior that beckons them in. They reach for the prize and SNAP! the door closes crushing the poor treasure hunter.

That's more fiction than fact. The clam is actually vegetarian and not really as big as the movies would lead you to believe. Check out these photos from Shell City and see one of the worlds larges clams.

Yes, there is also a pirate watching for someone trying to steal his booty.

This is a neat little souvenir shop near Mackinaw City and, since you don't pay an admission fee, is free to do in Michigan.
