Located at the Fishermans Village complex is the Little Minnows boutique that specializes in children's items. The entrance to the boutique has two large pink Queen Conch shells as handles. These shell handles measure approximately 10 inches each and make for a rather impressive pair of handles.

The Queen Conch is a sea snail that is found mainly in the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean. They are valued for seafood and the shells are sold to collectors and shops that specialize in shell sales. A mature Queen Conch can be up to 12 inches in length and can live up to 40 years.
