Since you’re given no further insight or help beyond this vague hint, it can be quite tricky to determine what you need to do to complete it. It’s not too tough a task to navigate once you know what it’s asking for, so here’s how to collect some shoreline shellfish in Disney Dreamlight Valley.

Shoreline shellfish refers to some Seafood you can forage around the valley, specifically Seafood you find along the coast of the Dazzle Beach biome. Not all Seafood counts as shoreline shellfish, and some items you might expect to fall under this category don’t, so you must search for the right ones to get it done.

There are three types of shoreline shellfish you can pick up for this task, all of which can be found around the Dazzle Beach biome. The items that count for this task are:

  • Clams – A pink shellfish.
  • Scallops – A dark blue shellfish.
  • Oysters – A light turquoise shellfish.

There are plenty of other Seafood items you can fish up, like Squid, Crab, and Lobster, but none of these items count for this Star Path quest since they aren’t found along the shore. If you have The Storybook Vale, you also might be tempted to pick up Mussels from around Mythopia, but these don’t count either, since there’s no beach in this biome for them to be along the shore of. Instead, you must stick only to the three Seafood items you can scavenge around the shore of Dazzle Beach.

To complete the collect some shoreline shellfish duty for the Retro Roadtrip Star Path event, you need to acquire 10 Seafood from the coastal region of Dazzle Beach. You must pick up Clams, Scallops, or Oysters to get this quest done. To grab these items, simply find them along the shore, then press the button that appears next to the words “Pick Up” when you’re next to them.

The shoreline shellfish you’re after respawns around this biome naturally as you pick up the Seafood already present, so get to work clearing it away to make room for more. If you don’t want to wait for it to respawn, there’s a bit of a useful trick you can use to get this task done quicker.

Drop any Clams, Scallops, and Oysters you already have on the ground and pick them back up to quickly progress through this task. You can use freshly found Seafood for this task or grab some you have packed away in storage. Repeat this step as many times as you need to until you’ve picked up the 10 required for this task.

Completing this task gets you 15 Tokens to spend in the Star Path event. It’s a decent prize, but you’ll likely still need a bit more if you’re hoping to unlock any of the bigger prizes. Luckily, there are plenty of other Retro Roadtrip Star Path duties you can get to work tackling next. If you’re not sure where to start, you might try feeding the Sunbird critters their favourite food, mining for oval Gems, practicing mine-fulness, and mining for square Gems.
