Those look like whelks!
 
That's what I was thinking lionfish how can I be sure?
 
I'll look through my shell catalogue and see if I can find anything. There are characteristics that point to a whelk, yet does not positively ID one.... which is the large dark operculum and the zebra pattern.
 
I believe them to be a Pollia sp.
