Homemade, Small Batch, Atlantic Ocean Sea Salt

Shelly Sells Sea Salt, Inc. is a small batch, Atlantic ocean sea salt company based out of Westhampton Beach, New York.

For ten years, we’ve been harvesting water to make delicious small batch sea salt for culinary use. We have seasonal and year round flavors as well as our standard natural sea salt. Shelly and her mother, Laura, harvest the water, filter it, and evaporate it into the sparkly white (sometimes blue, sometimes grey) crystals that you see in the photo to the right.

We also make an all natural sea salt hair texturizing mist from our salt. There are only four ingredients and can be used in all different hair textures and for many styling purposes. You can have beachy hair all year round. It’s a fan favorite!

Feel free to visit us on Instagram! @shellysellsseasalt enjoy our well curated collection of beach and food photography!

To purchase our salt, you can find The Salt Shop on this website or visit our Stockist page. Here you can find East End stores to purchase in person.

If you would like to order bigger batches, wholesale, arrange a personal contactless delivery, or just want to say hi, email us: Shellyseasalt@gmail.com

Meet Shelly

For a true Long Islander who grew up steps away from the Atlantic Ocean, it only made sense that Michele Martuscello found mermaid-like hobbies. Combine her Italian roots (passion for food and family) along with her love of the sea (her nickname, Shelly, didn’t hurt either) and the only direction to go was sea salt!

Like most Italians, Shelly's happiest memories happened around the table with her family. After an action filled day at the beach and then in the kitchen with her mom and dad preparing dinner, she says “It doesn’t get much better than some really good wine, yummy bread, and homemade pasta with, of course, a sprinkle of our family's sea salt.”

The mellow days at the Martuscello house usually end in evening walks on the beach for Shelly and her mom. It’s where the idea of making sea salt came to life. They harvest it straight from the Atlantic, then purify it, to create a delicious, fine, natural salt.

Please contact Michele through this site or email (shellyseasalt@gmail.com) for inquires and orders.
