Bumbora Beach (nickname Bumby), Norfolk Island, is a beautiful extremely picturesque beach littered with boulders, coarse pebbly/shelly sand, and an abundance of sea glass in a variety of colours!


The most common colour found was frosted clear, amber and brown. But also Dark olive, lime green, ice blue, sea-green. There is a mixture of well rounded and some still in the aging process!

Easy to access, just a short walk thru a scenic board walk with some steps, with a an amazing lookout and photo opportunity on the way down. Can find any sea glass by sifting through an endless thick layer of pebbly shelly mixture at high or low tide, from the edge of the shore right to the back of the beach. You will go cross eyed by the end!

This place is the beginning of my sea glass hunting hobby and is a sea glass hunters HAVEN!
