MANTEO, NC (WBTV) - A new island has popped up along the North Carolina coast, seemingly overnight, and people are going crazy over it.

The new stretch of land has been nicknamed "Shelly Island" by visitors who say it is the perfect spot to collect seashells.

According to CNN, the island was spotted by visitors and has been photographed by Chad Koczera and his drone. Shelly Island has reportedly grown from a tiny isle to a large land mass.
