Top eight beaches for fossil hunting
We absolutely love fossil hunting it’s great fun, although I must admit most of the time we don’t have a clue what we are actually looking for.
What do you need for beachcombing?
Many people don’t even know what beachcombing is, let alone what they need to do it.
What is bonfire glass?
Bonfire glass or what is sometimes called campfire glass is glass that has been heated so hot that it melts and loses its original shape, forming chunks of pitted glass.
Black seaglass
Black seaglass (or as we beachcombers like to call it pirate glass) is glass that looks black to the naked eye but once a bright light is shone through it, it shows up its true colour.
Beachcombing in Lyme Regis
Lyme Regis in Dorset is one of my favourite beaches to beachcomb, mostly because of the things that you can find there.
Beachcombing in Sully, South Wales

Beachcombing
Beachcombing is when you visit a beach with the intention of looking for items of interest to you, this could be seaglass, pottery, marbles, bottle stoppers and even trash.
