- Hello! Welcome back to Welsh in Wellies -or welcome if you're new here! I'm Francesca and this channel is all about my seaglass hunting and mudlarking adventures with my salty sea dog, Bear.
In this video, I am back in Seaham but this time visting a far less well-known spot - Hawthorn Hive! Pirate Glass, opalescent glass and giant bubbly chunks make up just some of this amazing haul. This beach definitely surprised me!
Let me know which piece was your favourite down in the comments!

I love hawthorn! It's so quiet and peaceful
I would love to see some of the jewelry you make. Your finds are lovely.
Such beautiful pieces. Prettiest colors..
Wow the aqua blue bubble is awesome well done xx
24:10!!! That’s exactly what I was looking for today!! Grrr 😂😂
Enjoy your videos and the information you share with us
I’m so glad!
* What you call Aqua is what is usually called "Mermaids Tears" & make Lovely jewelry.. Still love your enthusiasm & your kindness to your Dog friend.. ~ There is so much that I am surprised you aren't on your knees inching your way thru the pieces & dragging a huge bag behind you. LOL..
Believe me I would 😂 but it’s so physically draining at some point you’ve got to draw the line haha
I am absolutely in love with the cobalt blue finds! They are my favorite.
They’re so rare and vibrant!
Loved the video! Chicken with the waves, so much fun! Fantastic finds. The cobalt blue are my favorite but those aqua bubbles are just perfect! And thanks for sharing Bear pics, she’s so beautiful.
Thank you 🥹
Those are some lovely bubbles you found! I love your laugh, I find myself smiling every time I hear it, that's a precious gift. Poor Bear, she'll be sorry to miss adventures with you, my pup is 16 and I see her happiness when I take her hiking, and her pain when we come back. Being a fur baby Mom isn't easy. Have a wonderful week!
Thanks Julianne ☺️ I’m glad it makes you smile! Wow 16! I hope bear lives that long!
Some really super finds! Great drone video.
New on my feed. Really enjoyed your video. 🌻
Thank you ❤️ welcome aboard!
Some gorgeous finds there. I hope Bear is nicely rested now. She's fortunate to have you, and you her. She's a beautiful girl 🤗
She made a swift recovery Tina! Thank you for asking ☺️ she is my little furry soul mate ❤️
@@welshinwellies Aww that's good to hear 🥰
Wow you really were rewarded with some beautiful glass Francesca. It’s a very inaccessible part of the coast so we’ll done to you both, great team work…Bear is so adorable 🥰.
Thanks Charlotte! I was a rough hike 😂 I was fuming in the beginning when I thought it was all for nothing! Gladly I was proven wrong.
Your pink multi is actually a piece of cranberry glass i think x
I’ve not heard of that - I’ll Google it now! Thanks for the tip! ❤️
Hiya, great video as ever. The white blob you found looks like a face from the side 😂. I watched Manchester mudlarks yesterday and Sarah mentioned you. Which I thought was great.
Sarah is so supportive of my channel - she’s a very kind person! ❤️
The glass is all so well-worn, and I especially love the bubbles! The big aqua bubble was my favorite! Bear is such a sweet dog!! Is there a path down to this beach, or did you just have to scramble? Thanks for an amazing outing!! Take care! 🙏❤️
There’s a path but it’s very steep and windy. It goes under the vid it. There’s also steps the other side of the beach but they’re practically vertical!
@@welshinwellies Thanks for this info! May be a little intense for us, if my hubby and I ever get our long-awaited trip over the pond! It looks incredible, though! Thanks for sharing! I’m a new subscriber and I’m watching all of your videos! You do a great job and I love your work!🙏❤️
Manchester mudlarks sent me over I've subscribed great channel
Welcome! And thanks for the sub!
@@welshinwellies your welcome
There looked like a piece of sea pottery just as you picked up the chunky glass piece at 20:12. That is an amazing round chunky piece of amber at 26:30, if I wore jewelry, I'd buy it.
New sub. Beautiful finds!
Welcome! ❤️
You missed a piece of sea pottery when bear went into the sea pond x
Noooooooo 😫
Your fingers look so cold. Good finds.
Subscribed! Such sweet finds there ❤ i film for my channel and often find littles on Lake Huron, Canada! Thanks for sharing all your lovely finds. That chunky aqua is gorgeous!
Welcome to the WiW crew ☺️
@@welshinwellies thank you!
Have you ever gotten cut off by the tide coming in stranding you on the beach? 😮
No I’m very very careful and always make sure I’m aware of what the tide is doing. No sea glass is worth the risk ❤️
You found some really nice ones, but I think you did`nt find any red this time? And multi and pieces of porcelain is nice.
No red sadly! Still on the lookout!
Do you make jewelry with your finds? Do you sell any of your work, if you do??? Love the Aqua Bubbles and the Cornflower glass.. Is there any way to buy them? Are you on Etsy?
I do make bits and pieces of jewellery - I’ve got a couple of videos up of how I do it. I haven’t thought to sell them to be honest!
Shippersea Bay is extremely dangerous to access. A woman was airlifted to hospital trying to access it.
Yes the goat track that leads down from the cliffs is treacherous. You can get to it from Hawthorn Hive at low tide but that carries its own risks too - being cut off and the walk is very rocky!
@Welsh in Wellies Im very aware of the dangers and would never attempt to access it. The rocks at low tide are very treacherous, and a guy broke his ankle going over them. This area should not be promoted.
What time of year is it best to go to Seaham?
Hey. I need some advice. When coming to hunt seaglass, should I wear waterproof boots or will hoka shoes be ok? Coming from the US so have to pack the boots- will do if you think it will help me alot.
thanks!
Absolutely wellies are essential! But you can buy them here and save space in your case!
Thanks!
