the slight air movements that flow through a conch produce the effective sound of wind moving back and forth. The sound travels through the spiral, getting restricted as it goes farther into it, and the vibrations get tighter and tighter, making the sound more high-pitched. then, as the air circulates back out, the opposite effect happens.
The resulting high to low, low to high, ;loud to quiet and back to loud sounds like the ocean when amplified in a conch shell.
You hear the ocean sound in a conch shell because the shape of the shell acts as a natural amplifier and resonator for the ambient noise around you, including the sound of the ocean. The shape of the conch shell reflects and amplifies the sound waves, creating the illusion of hearing the ocean even when you are far away from it.

Advantages: Conch shells are durable and can be used for decorative purposes, jewelry making, or as musical instruments. They are also culturally significant in various traditions and beliefs. Disadvantages: Unfortunately, harvesting conch shells can have negative consequences on marine ecosystems as it can disrupt the balance of the ecosystem and harm the conch populations. Overharvesting can also lead to a decline in conch populations, impacting the biodiversity of the ocean.
Its a closed, rounded shell, with an opening that if you hold to your ear, myth says you can hear the sea! :o)
