If you're looking to plan your next trip, why not make your favorite metal detector your travel buddy? Let's start with this list every metal detectorist should check.

Top metal detecting vacation destinations

  • Florida. When it comes to beach metal detecting, Florida's coasts take the crown!

This state is the treasure trove that keeps on giving thanks to the many treasure-laden shipwrecks around 1715.

Stick till the end to find our best selection of destinations inside Florida!

  • North Carolina. In second place comes the state of North Carolina, a known hot spot for family vacations that hold many valuable items waiting to be found!

It is rumored that this was once Blackbeard's stomping grounds, with four possible locations near Ocracoke Island where his treasure could be spotted. Are you ready to outsmart a pirate?

  • Utah. Next up, head to Utah to enjoy an exciting vacation destination. Here, you may find King Montezuma's gold, an Aztec treasure, underneath its sands and canyons.

If you're brave, go for the supposed hidden treasure inside Utah's caves. Rumor has it Aztec warriors killed each other to have their spirits protect their gold. So if you're not superstitious, go for it!

  • Arizona. Last but not least comes the state of Arizona. This state is a famous gold-hunting spot! Go to the counties of Yuma, Yavapai, Maricopa, Cochise, and Mojave to get lucky.

There are as many active mines as abandoned mines that are worth checking out! Or head out to the North to undug the Lost Dutchman's treasure, a concentrated gold mine considered the most famous lost mines in America.

Florida's best metal detecting locations

As promised, here's a bonus list with Florida's top treasure-filled spots.
