although you haven't given their sizes, i recognise them -they are not Heishi because they need no grinding- they are Puka shells and Peter Francis described to me that on some of the beaches on islands around Hawaii you can't avoid treading on them they are so numerous...
the way the empty slightly conical spiral shell is worn by the sea gives a hole quite naturally...
