Glass Beach in Kauai[edit]

There's a real glass beach on Kaua'i, one of the Hawaiian islands. The top layer of beach is almost entirely pieces of tiny rounded sea glass. It's a rather unknown beach near Port Island, among industrial buildings. Can some people add this page?--Darkfeline (talk) 06:09, 16 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

No glass in Benicia?[edit]

After reading this and seeing no mention elsewhere of the glass beach in Benicia I called their chamber of Commerce. The woman grew up in Benicia and said there really isn't any glass left there and she thinks a restaurant that was above the ocean there caused previous glass shards etc. Seeing that this is not really a destination I think Benicia should be removed from the entry.

In fact I agree this article is really confusing. The concept of a "glass beach" does not seem like an appropriate topic for wiki. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.61.141.87 (talk) 14:38, 18 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Benicia vs. Fort Bragg[edit]

Glass Beach is definitely in Benicia, not Fort Bragg. I live here in Benicia, I took the picture in Benicia, I go to Glass Beach randomly, here in Benicia. Don't contradict me. Perhaps though, there are other glass beaches, including one in Fort Bragg. Perhaps a page should be about the idea of a glass beach moreso than the one specific one. Until I see evidence towards more than one glass beach, leave it as "in Benicia".

There is also definitely a Glass Beach in Fort Bragg. A Google search turns up references to it quite easily, and there is even a road in Fort Bragg called Glass Beach Drive. When I first found this article I was looking for an article on the beach in Fort Bragg. If I or someone else ever gets around to creating that article, then we should probably rename this one to be more specific. I'd have to look at the Wikipedia naming conventions, but something like "Glass Beach, Benicia, CA". Until then, I'm glad you weighed in because I wasn't sure if this was a real place. (I can't find any other references to it on-line.) Can you provide a location in the article? You know, "at the end of 3rd street" or something? Taranah 18:59, 28 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I just reverted an edit by someone who confused this beach with the one in Fort Bragg again. There is very little to go on other than the unsigned comment above. But the glass in the picture doesn't look like the beach in Fort Bragg, and I dug up this web page which mentions the one in Benicia as well. That seemed like enough evidence to believe that this beach exists. - Taranah 06:48, 21 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
