About Conneaut Beach

Conneaut's township park beach sits near the Pennsylvania border on Lake Erie. Local collectors list it among their favourite Ohio beaches, and it is particularly known for blue slag glass linked to an old GE plant.

Sea glass at Conneaut Beach

Blue slag glass as well as ordinary beach glass. Best just after a storm and in autumn or winter.

Visiting Conneaut 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.
