You’ll Want To Visit These 8 Beaches For The Most Beautiful Connecticut Sea Glass
The shoreline is always littered with small treasures from the sea. Whether it be a perfect conch shell or an incredible piece of sea glass, Mother Nature tosses these natural gifts up onto our sandy shores with regularity. Sea glass is often a coveted prize for beachcombers. It can be found in vibrant blue, subtle green, and even the occasional dazzling red. Here are eight beaches where you can begin your search for some gorgeous Connecticut sea glass.
Sandy Point is a bird sanctuary in West Haven, but as long as you stay off the dunes, it is a great place to look for sea glass. You'll have the best luck down at the end of the point where changing tides wash up all kinds of seashore goodies.
Hammonasset State Park has an extensive beach on the Long Island Sound. The best opportunity to find washed up sea glass is off of Meig's Point at the end of the park.
Silver Sands is a popular beach year round, but at low tide, you can hike the sandbar out to Charles Island and you might discover some uncollected sea glass.
After windy weather is the best time to scour this beach for sea glass. The curved shoreline offers scenic views and a great spot to hold items that wash in with the surf.
