Are there any good sea glass beaches on the island?

Hi Clayton! 

Hope things are great in Maine - thanks for the question! 

Short answer is a resounding yes - to be quite honest, your chances of finding sea glass at pretty much any beach around the Island is pretty high. 

There are a number of more popular/sea-glass-dense areas though - the beaches around the Souris area always do well, and same goes for around Belfast and Murray Harbour. If I’m on the hunt I typically try to go to places that are directly on the coast with the ocean (not rivers/streams) and usually get some better finds after a strong tide/wave action. 

Hope that helps! 

Al
