Chesapeake Western Shore Beach Glass Report

Glass beach combing for two hours
~ sea glass beach report submitted by Deb Moriarty, Port Republic
Name of Beach and Location: South of Plum Point to north of Calvert Beach, Maryland
City nearest to that beach - Prince Frederick, Maryland
Most pieces are well tumbled but not yet totally rounded, so craft grade.
The picture shows what we picked up over a two hour walk - about 30 pieces I'd guess - at low tide this morning.
Rate the beach (a clear photo of the sea glass must be included in order to qualify for a rating): Fair
Do not pick at the cliffs, people live up there!
Access is difficult, private communities all along this stretch, helps to know someone who lives in the area and has access to their beachfront.
High tide impassable in some areas, kayaks get you to some of the beach area, but not sure where you can put in to reach the bay.
