The common whelk (Buccinum undatum) is the largest sea snail found in northern Atlantic waters, making its distinct spiral shell a treasured find along coastal shores of the Isle of Man and British Isles. These fascinating marine molluscs thrive on sandy and rocky seabeds beyond the low tide mark.

Renowned for their delicate yet slightly chewy texture, whelk meat offers a rich and slightly sweet flavour with a subtle brininess, making it a sought-after ingredient in seafood cuisine especially in Asia.
