I have a pretty sweet collection of megalodon teeth my grandfather found in the 80s. I found one myself as a kid, but it had one upper side busted. It was as big as my hand then, though.
There's some kind of sea-floor phenomenon that causes teeth to wash up on the beach in Venice, Florida, with a great regularity. 30 years ago, there were a lot more teeth.
Nowadays, scuba divers get most of them a couple hundred yards offshore at some underwater ledge, so they are more rare at the beach.
A great time to go is after a hurricane.

There are specific exceptions but it is beyond the ability of the average person to be able to ensure compliance. What may appear to be an abundant and common deposit can in fact be one which is not part of the exceptions to the collection rules.
