Have you ever found a piece of colored glass or bottle along the shoreline that appears frosted, weathered, and tumbled almost as if it were stone? These glass pieces, once retrieved from the shoreline, can be turned into a unique treasure.

Sea glass has been used in many different ways due to its beauty for decoration, art works, jewelry making, and much more.

Join a ranger, create your very own sea glass necklace, and learn about the occurrence of this fascinating process in which it was formed by the force of water.

Please sign up and pay for your spot at the Visitor Center.

Sea Glass necklace, wire wrapped, and completed during the necklace making program.
