Fort Fisher, NC - Sea Glass Beach Report

Fort Fisher, NC - Sea Glass Beach Report?

June 2011 - Poor: Don't bother.

Since all the hurricanes, the whole beach has changed.

Used to be able to find some glass and lots of ballast bricks, but no more.

Added info:

Fort Fisher is on Pleasure Island not far from Wilmington, North Carolina.

It is just south of Kure Beach, really a great place to go in the summer.

So even if you don't expect to find sea glass, there are a lot of things to do and see in this area.

Lin and I spent some time there when we lived in North Carolina for 4 years and almost moved to Wilmington because of the nice beaches. Of course summer is best but winter has its own beauty on the Carolina coast.

Sea Brick
by: Joe B

hello. For what it's worth, I found a sea brick today at Ft Fisher Beach. Right near wher the rocks and pilings start.

I guess it's the ol' bell curve at work. Something has to turn up eventually. Well, today was my lucky day at low tide.

Adding this smooth and rounded sea brick to the rock garden alongside some rusty iron rocks from Craggy Gardens. Here in the Charlotte area.
