About Fleetwood Beach

Fleetwood sits at the northern tip of the Fylde coast where the River Wyre meets Morecambe Bay. Its shingly beach keeps a dry strip at high tide, which the Fylde tourism site says is where sea glass hunters should focus. Tides here come in fast across a very wide bay.

Sea glass at Fleetwood Beach

White and green glass reported. Search the strandlines and finer grit bands after spring tides and storms.

Visiting Fleetwood Beach

Safety
Check the tide times before you go and head out on a falling tide, so you're never cut off. Keep away from the bottom of cliffs, wear sturdy shoes on rocks, and only take sea glass and other man-made rubbish: pebbles, sand and shells should stay on the beach.
