About Moelfre Beach

Moelfre is a fishing and lifeboat village on Anglesey's north-east coast with a small rocky beach by the harbour. A travel blogger who collected there says much of her Anglesey sea glass came from combing through the rocks on this beach, and beachcombers have filmed sea glass hunts there.

Sea glass at Moelfre Beach

Sea glass is found by searching among the rocks on the small beach; the sources don't list colours.

Visiting Moelfre 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.
