Travelers can hunt for million-year-old fossils and more valuable treasures in these spots

Travelers can get their hands dirty and track down ancient dinosaur fossils, jewels and more treasures through excursions across the country.

On March 29, the museum will open its doors to the public who can search for 66-million-year-old fossils.

Admission rates are as follows: Explorer (ages 13+): $29; Jr. Explorer (ages 3-12): $24; Toddler (ages 2 and under): free.

Upon entering the premises, visitors will have plenty to scope out. 

"Alongside its exhibits, EFM will include a unique fossil dig experience, free-roam virtual reality adventure, personalized interactive encounters and a dinosaur-themed playground, offering a unique blend of scientific discovery and exploration for all ages," he said.

"The museum is built adjacent to a four-acre fossil quarry, where visitors can observe ongoing paleontological excavations," he said.

"The highlight of the experience is the thrill of discovery," Lacovara added.

He noted that all those who participate find their own 66-million-year-old fossil to take home from the estimated 100,000 fossils on site, which hail from more than 100 species of prehistoric marine and land animals.

"There aren't many opportunities nowadays that allow you to get outdoors and in close contact with nature," he said. 

"We hope the quarry fossil dig allows everyone, especially children, to reconnect with the world and inspires them to take action in protecting our planet's future."

In July, Will and Marshall Barnet stopped at Arkansas' Crater of Diamonds State Park during a road trip to try their hand at mining. 

Located in Murfreesboro, Arkansas, the park gives visitors a chance to search a 37-acre field for treasures. Over 35,000 diamonds have been found by park visitors, according to the park's site. 

The fee to search for diamonds for adults is $15 and children is $7.

The fee to search for crystals for adults is $25. 

For seniors, the price is set at $20, and for children ages 7-15, it's $5.

For those searching for "toothy" treasures, otherwise known as shark teeth, National Geographic told Fox News Digital that East Coast beaches are the destination to go.

Venice, Florida, is often considered the "shark tooth capital of the world."

Leaving early for the beach is recommended, as well as searching during low tide or after a storm, when the ocean might've shaken things up.

Tooth searching takes a lot of patience. 

National Geographic suggested searching slowly, especially if you're bringing small kids along for the journey.
