Sea glass collected at Castle Sands, United Kingdom

What Seaglassmap found here

The St Andrews beach collectors actually go to. A small cove below the castle, down a steep flight of steps from The Scores. A Scottish sea glass jeweller calls it "unbelievably rich in sea-glass", with a huge abundance of green and white, though she is honest that you are unlikely to find rare colours here. Go at MID tide and walk the waterline; low tide is reportedly pointless on this one. Covered at high water.
