This guy happiness is very simple. It's nice to hear when he said Wow what a beautiful day every time he found a piece if glass beach.
Omg! watching these beautiful stones getting picked up was so relaxing! I kept on watching it again and again!!
For those of you who collect beach glass and display it. If you put your collection in a glass tube, do not use saltwater/tap water, Instead, use rubbing alcohol and fill the tube or jar with it. That way the jar stays clear without having to change it if it were saltwater/tap water and the colors stay vivid for years.
Pro tip: watch movies on Flixzone. Been using it for watching loads of movies recently.
@Collin Jerome Definitely, I have been watching on flixzone} for since december myself =)
Wow every shade of blue and green and everything in between. That yellow piece is stunning. Thank you for sharing
Just the satisfaction of finding each piece just warms you up and makes you feel like you accomplished something great, and then you can do it 50 times over again and that’s why I love looking for the pieces
OMG sooo pretty beautifull video I never knew this glass Beach thing before 👌👌💎💎💗
omg you're missing so many.. I wanna come there and help you collect all.of them..so beautiful 😍😍😍

Wow, they look like true gems.
Wish I could go see glass hunting.
i swear
i never saw such beautiful sight in my entire life
what a beach,,!!
it is unique!!
You are very fortunate to find such beautiful treasures at the beach
This video made me so envious. I was in PT for an art retreat several years back without a car...I was there with a local who took me and another friend to North Beach late in the day and we were able to pick up just a few pieces as it was getting dark. This was the first day, we never made it back over! I spent the entire event hoping we would, only to be disappointed that we didn’t. To see this video allowed me to see what I missed! Argh...Great video, however! Tfs
HOW BEAUTIFUL UR HOBBY, NEVER TAKE FOR GRANTED THE BEAUTY OF THE SEAS/NATURES GIFTS TO YOU. THE SOUNDS, THE SMELL, THE PEACE. HOW FORTUNATE YOU ARE.

THANKS FOR SHARING THIS RECOLLECTION OF GLASS MARBLES.LOVELY.
I love this beach!!! And the city is really nice too
It's like youre Thanos and is trying to find all infinity stones
Btw great vid 👌
Lol
🤣
This beach is below the cliff where everyone used to dump their garbage. There are a few spots like this along the bluff. I knew a woman Native woman who died at over 100 and she used to talk about growing up in the Native camp on the beach near Fort Warden and how as children she and her friends would always sneak off to find what the people in town and thrown away. Low tide after a storm is always the best pickings. Though when I moved to the area 25 years ago it wasn't unusual to find whole beer steins, teapots and sometimes silverware. Sad to think that somewhere that's been loved by locals for so long will eventually disappear as more people find out about it.
Agree about the sad part! We have a Glass Beach in California, and for years , with the internet , people found out and it became a free for all! Now they do not allow any glass to be removed, at all! Apparently it worked , and it's been restored pretty well! Let's hope Washington's glass beach stays that way! 💙
What great treasures you found. Fun to watch. Keep it up
Yes there is a lot of glass at glass beach. The iron all rusted away, the wood and plastic washed away with the tide and the organic matter dissipated years ago. This was the city dump in Port Townsend until the late 60s!
Such amazing volume of glass! I'm ready to drive up right now! I am lucky when I can make it the two hours south to Santa Cruz CA to find a few meager pieces. Wow!...just wow!
wow you are so lucky to live by that beach. marking this beach as one of my bucket list places to go!!!!!!! beautiful finds!!!!!!
I also see plenty of beautiful rocks to collect.
Amazing wonderful to watch all different types stone
Sea glass in my very favorite. I found your site and I love it.
Oh my god, all are so stunning. I want all those stones 😢 😢 😢
Seaglass is so beautiful
Awesome I hope to visit some day! Great Videos and very informative!
This was fun to watch. Very cool.
Amazingly created by nature. I love them.
only if they are FROSTED it takes decades to get frosted
Wow I love it,yellow is rare,orange is rarest. Marbles is great to find.i feel so relaxed when I go.
Oh my hands are itching to get in there,
Wow!
I wish I was there.
Thanks for sharing and cool finds...some kid lost his marbles there that's for sure.
How much they look beautiful! I didn't know about them..😍
I never find blue or yellow at the beach where I usually go ! I was in Port Townsend not long ago but I didn't have time to visit any beach. I must visit the area again for the sea glass ! Thanks for the video.
You would be VERY LUCKY if you found them here.
Found a few pieces at Bandon OR but nothing like what you are finding! Love your find!❤
I was just there in May, you are finding larger ones than what I was finding. I found a yellow one than lost it😐.Thanks for sharing. You have me hooked on Damon Point Beach 😁
They are beautiful !!!
You are driving me nuts dude... Ahhh what cool finds
Wow so beautiful!!! I live in Maine and Wish I knew a beach here I could find glass like that. I'll watch you for now lol
as goofy and nerdy as this sounds to do..... it actually quite fun. I have a nice large collection I have recovered from the beaches in Virginia. I do still have them and have them in a huge candle display.... I shoved the candle in the middle of the decanter and spill the glass along the sides and looks great at night light. im sure there are many options to do with them but I do like my display. fun and relaxing it is.
This remines me when i was a chilld . Dad and i use to go to the beach looking for nice shells and nice stones and pebles for our aquarium. now i am 52 and he is not hare eany more miss him verry much. Dad , some things never change.
Are you
Such a unique thing you have shown to us. We are really not seen this kind of a glass stone. Thank you.
Fabulous looking glasses. Wish i was there!
Ooo that red and yellow piece 😍
I live near Lake Erie shores.. I find lots of sea glass, but it’s not as worked as what your finding, or I should say it’s more rare to find those nice worked pieces ..
Such beautiful treasure sea glass is
Sea glass has a deep meaning to me, even spiritual
~ Broken has beauty
i see so many your missing... i want to come help
Lisa Martin I think he's leaving some for the amateurs, it makes me want to help too though, haha.
Lisa Martin i love you
Megusta

Como a terra é maravilhosa.
Quantas pedras lindas, quantas maravilhas que ela produz.
Deus nos deu um lindo paraíso terreno.
Hey you found my sake bottle that I put in the trash 3 years ago when I was in Japan. Cool.
Wow a lot of great finds, so beautiful, can't find that where I live. Not that fortunate.
Wowww....!!! Really awesome ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤Greetings from DUBAI ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I love collecting thid stones..im my place along the river found this but white..its very rare.
Ah, yes, I've hunted sea glass on that beach in the past and it is probably the Number One spot in Washington State. I think that I added well over 200 pieces to my own collection from there, along with some of the best sea pottery finds that I've ever made. Oh, and that is an awesome piece of yellow that you found in your video! Thanks for sharing this. Happy future hunting.
We used to camp at Fort Warden and walk the beach, have found lots of sea glass and sea pottery
That's pretty cool. I have lots of different colored sea glass that I collected about 30 years ago on the beaches of Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. : )
When I was a child we used to visit this private beach area in Mexico, I clearly remember a whole lot of this sea glass all over the sand....not so long ago I lost my bottle of them they were nearly 20 year old it made me sad because it was a dear memory of the day with my dad picking them up.
I just found you and i watched your Video and i liked it so much i Subscribed and i gave it a thumps up. Thank you for sharing
I love hunting for sea glass, my hubby took me to Fort Brag last year it was so much fun but not much was left only bits and pieces. I enjoyed your video.
Looks like you had a couple of pieces of Vaseline glass. Put it under UV light and see if it glows.
What simple treasures are greatly admired
So.....beautiful. I love these..
U lucky man find color Glass beach 👍👊🖐👏👏👏👏👏👌
Hi ma’am nice beaches and happy fam
That's amazing!!
I'm so envy with your finds. Love to find those too.
Que coisa mais linda Tim!!! Nunca mais nunca vi algo assim tão lindo!!! Tão maravilhoso!!! Essa praia parece o paraíso! Amo pedras de Rio, COLECIONO algumas, pois moro no Brasil no interior de São Paulo, numa cidadezinha chamada ASSIS. MEU QUERIDO NUNCA TINHA VISTO PEDRAS COLORIDAS ASSIM ! GOSTARIA MUITO DE TER ALGUMAS! SERIA GANHAR NA LOTERIA PRA MIM PODER TER PEDRAS QUE PARECEM VINDA DO CÉU! PARABÉNS PELO VÍDEO PARABÉNS!!!
Obrigado pelas suas palavras gentis. Se você procura por uma praia onde eles costumavam jogar lixo como garrafas e pratos antigos, você pode encontrar pedras de vidro mar agora. O mar e as ondas transformarão o velho lixo em lindas pedras preciosas.
Tim Blair (SIM TIM!!! NÃO SABIA QUE SÃO DE ANTIGO LIXO ESSAS PEDRAS COLORIDAS! MAS AMO AS RÚSTICAS FORMADA PELA NATUREZA PEDRAS MACIÇAS! COMO MUITAS DESSAS QUE ESTÃO AÍ NESTA PRAIA! AS VINHOS OPACAS, VERMELHAS DESBOTADAS, VERDES ESCURAS E CIRSTAIS DE QUARTZO DA NATUREZA! ME ENCANTAM MUITO! PARABÉNS TIM! UM DIA QUERO TER UMA DESSAS RÚSTICAS!
I adore finding dark blue glass,(all shades of blue are ❤️) which is rare on my local beach. I have found a tiny piece of yellow glass, but I don't expect to find any more. Green's and brown are very common here, along with what was clear glass that has now become opaque.
I had so many pieces that I put them into the recycling bin, as they aren't meant to be on the beach.
Me and my fiancee also pick up sea glasses whenever we are at the beach. It's really amazing.
Kha par h ye plz batay
My dream place is a beautiful beach full of beautiful stones,seeps and pearls and i will spend whole day to collect them,,,,😍😍👍👌
take a little garden claw and rake up some underneath the rocks.
I don't think I would be able to leave that beach. I would try to stay as long as there is light. And damn the rocks, sea glass and the beauty of the place would keep me there........wishes to be accomplished.....
Yes... it is always very hard to leave and begin walking back. The reality of the tide returning and covering the beach does motivate me to make the 3 mile walk back to the parking lot. Every day brings a new batch of sea glass that is uncovered by the previous night's high tide and waves. I hope you can make it there some day!
I noticed a lot of polished stones near the sea glass. Have you ever picked them up too?
Yeah they look very beautiful too! One day I picked a rock(idk) that seems like a knife >=3

THANKS YOU TIM⚘.WOW ! DAPHNE COTTON ALWAYS 💜🦋.❤🖤💚BROWN FAMILY.
Am i the only one who loves seaglass and sea shells
So beautiful😍
Wow, what beautiful glass you found and i really like the marbles as well. I would love to be out there looking for all the treasures. I could spend hours doing that i know this because i spend hours looking for seashells on Sanibel Island.
I have heard so many great things about Sanibel Island and would love to go visit someday. I have a cousin who's son lives in Florida and she visited the island a year ago. Thank you for your kind words. blessings! Tim Blair
Pretty. If only diamonds would wash up on shore instead
They would make beautiful jewelry.
Beautiful I used to look for them too
My mom once found a red marble :) it was amazing
There's all kinds of different stones and glass on that beach!
Wow, that is pretty cool.
1:53 my vision started twitching wildly 🤢
There is one of these near ft Bragg California too. I still have some. Blue glass is the rarest
Even the regular pebbles on that beach are pretty
Beautiful stone
Hi Tim; I enjoy your videos, mainly because I grew up in Fort Worden, when it was a large juvenile facility. My Dad was a Social Worker there prior to it's closing. Which really broke my heart to leave there and move to Spokane, yuck, Spokane! I'm now in NM. I visit Port Townsend about every two years, Love it there.
Robert Matulich me too I like Port Townsend even though IAM NOT from there. It's a quite town. When our ship is in Port Hadlock we drive to Port Townsend for good time.
I know a couple of beaches here that have small pieces of different coloured glass. First came across it some 55 years ago as a kid aged 10. Never knew any of it was rare or could be used for anything. I'll have to head there and have a good search around, see what I can find, sizes, condition and colours.
Yes the sea glass hobby has definitely taken off over the last 15 years. There are costal communities that hold sea glass festivals filled with vendors who sell their sea glass jewelry or "genuine" hand picked pieces off of local beaches. The goal of most sea glass hunters is to find the jewelry quality type of sea glass that is completely frosted all around with no chips visible. The thicker the better. The older pieces of sea glass tended to be made of a thicker grade of glass. The more contemporary pieces are typically thinner glass. The avid collector is also looking for more exotic or rare colors. The reds, pinks, yellows, deeper blues called "cobalt blue" and lavenders are some of the sought after colors. The whites, ambers and greens (called Kelly Green) are the most common. Darker teals or lighter greens called sea foam are also enjoyed by collectors and good for making earrings or pendants for necklaces. Have a great time hunting. Do some research and find out all the details about the hobby. It will be addicting.
Thanks for the info. By the way, I am in Wales, UK. When I get a chance to search those 2 beaches locally, I'll let you know what I find, size, colour etc.
Que lugar maravilhoso! Eu não iria sair mais dai kkk
Wait wait wait
So these glass, they form naturally ?
I thought it was glass bottles and other glass stuff that got smoothed out by the waves.
Mind blowing!
Just did some research.
I feel dumb for the comment above -_-
I apologize for wasting your time 🙇
Have a nice day /night
The glass shards were left from the old town dump and then over many years they formed naturally into rounded pieces of beautiful sea glass. So, no ... they were not formed naturally by erosion but the left overs from the old town dump that was at that location. The sea then took over and recreated the remaining pieces of debris into pieces of art. The other pieces of metal were rusted away and are now practically gone. There only remains at McCurdy point a few vehicle axels and gear boxes which are highly rusted.
@@timblair3004 thank you for the information.
this is my favorite hobby at holydays....but I never found a red one...
a lot of Your pieces are so beautiful - You may create jewellery!
Did you know that Kawaii has a glass beach too?
Trust me, I go here several times a year..it is not just laying around like you see it here. You have to dig for it and you might find the amount shown within 2 years!
I have been out to this beach many times. I typically gather my collection that I had accumulated over several hours of hunting and make a few video statements. I do always collect that amount each time. I guess I have had a better experience finding it. It IS just laying around out there and one needs to just look diligently and you WILL find it. If you are impatient then I guarantee you will not find many pieces. I completely disagree with your statement. Please, if you are not satisfied with going out there....Stop going!
Oi Tim Blair, se aqui no Brasil tivesse tantas pedras assim, eu iria catar todos os dias. Sou apaixonada por elas. Estou adorando seus videos.
Gracias..... I am glad you love my videos. You probably have beaches with much sea glass and beautiful stones. The sea glass is found on beaches where trash or garbage was dumped many years ago. Thank you for your words.
Angela Bastos eu também oh
Que pedras são essas?
Beautiful ‘n Colourful 👍♥️😎 Thanks for uploading more power your channel. Watching from Sydney Australia 🇦🇺
You are so lucky 👍🌹
I envy you 😉
Nice. I saw many more you left them.
