because of water
Seaweed is found on some beaches but not on others due to factors such as currents, wave action, wind direction, and topography of the beach. Beaches with strong currents and waves are more likely to have seaweed washed up on shore, while sheltered beaches may have less seaweed accumulation. Additionally, the presence of marine life that feeds on seaweed can also impact its abundance on certain beaches.
There are various black sand beaches around the world, with popular ones found in countries like Iceland, Hawaii, and New Zealand. It's difficult to provide an exact number, as new black sand beaches may be discovered or created by volcanic activity.
Beaches form along coastlines where waves deposit sand and other sediments. The shape and size of a beach can vary depending on factors such as wave energy, sediment supply, and coastal geology.
Stinging nettle fish are found in the sea or ocean near beaches, usually around rocky or sandy areas. Their sting can be quite painful but not usually lethal.
Ambergris is a natural waste product from whales, and it may be found (rarely) at the tide line on a beach. Have a crack at Ambergris on wikipedia.org.
The rare ambergris was prized for its unique fragrance and historically used in fine perfumes.
The coastal regions.
Ambergris is only produced by sperm whales. It's a secretion from the intestines, and may be formed to ease the passage of hard objects through the digestive system (giant squid beaks have been found embedded in Ambergris).Ambergris is usually found on coastal beaches or floating on the sea after being passed as fecal matter or vomited (if a mass is too large to pass through the intestines). It may also be found in the abdomens of dead specimens (as described in Moby Dick).Historically, Ambergris has been used as a perfume base, but in the 1970s t was banned from use in many countries, including the United States, because of its origin within a vulnerable whale species.
Ambergris is a byproduct of the Sperm Whale. They are found in all oceans of the world, therefore it is possible that some ambergris could wash up on shore in Alaska. (although, if you find it, you would not be able to profit from it because of protections from the endangered sea mammals act)
Most sand can be found on beaches and in deserts.

The whales were targeted for ambergris.
As of 2006, raw ambergris fetched the US ten dollars per gram but higher prices may be possible for high-quality samples.

There is no set price for ambergris. Depending on the size, it can be worth thousands of dollars.
You need to get the specimen looked at/identified by a marine biologist. If it is Ambergris (whale vomit) it will be valuable so make sure you take it it a reputable expert. see the link below.
