I know there are a few glass beaches in the world, but this one is special for me. It's located in the MacKerricher State Park, in Fort Bragg (northern California coastline). 

It's a beach where the sand is traded by small pieces of smooth glass of every color and space, transformed over the time. The glass comes from the fact that this area was a dumpsite for trash in the early to mid-1900s, and over the years, the ocean flattened and broke down the glass to what it is today. The area is continuously changing with people taking from it every day, so it is hard to say what it will look like when you go, and maybe if you're there, you can help taking one or two pieces your own, since this is really bad for the environment. That's why it's on my bucket list, I want to be in when it comes to protect our ocean environment from plastic, or even little pieces of glass.


All along the beach are small tide pools that have everything from crabs to sea anemones, so it's good to see a little bit of sealife too when you are here.

How to visit:
If you're by car, you just have to park it (it's free yei!!) and then walk a bit. There are now signs that direct you to Glass Beach, and while there used to be stairs down the beach, they were washed out in the 2017 rains. You can still get down to the beach by going down the small dirt trail.
