Review:
Glass Beach used to be wildly popular with artists and jewelers because of all the sea glass the beach is named for. Conservation efforts to keep the sea glass from disappearing have made it so the only souvenirs visitors can take from the beach now is photos.
The colorful sea glass treasures are the result of the ocean wearing on discarded glass bottles and jars from a trash dump site. Beachgoers can access the otherwise pebbly beach via a wide path from the Glass Beach Road parking area. Kids will love the colorful beach too, but the water is unpredictable and sometimes dangerous. It’s a great place for tidepooling, hiking, and beachcombing at low tide.
