Playa Cofi, called Sea Glass Beach by English speakers, is a half-mile beach on the north side of Vieques with views of the Punta Mulas lighthouse and the old Spanish fort. The glass is thought to come from an old dump on a neighbouring beach. Reports vary: it has been heavily picked, and some visitors find little.
Colourful glass, including prized orange, red, yellow and cobalt pieces, mainly at the waterline and in the shallows at low tide.
