Stunning little beach ⛱️ some smooth glass stones here and there, returned to the shore from when the site was a rubbish area, many years ago.
A little tricky to access the shore. You need to climb down the small rock face with a few jagged rocks.
Definitely worth the stop at this little gem.
Dog friendly too 🐕😄
There’s still glass there! Such a cute beach! We climbed down & up the jagged rocks safely & unharmed to access the sand
Beautiful beach. Hardly any glass anymore, bit difficult to access but stunning.

Glass Beach, also known as Factory Bay Glass Beach near Robe, is a stunning little gem with smooth glass stones scattered on the shore, remnants of its past as a rubbish area. Accessing the beach can be tricky due to climbing down a small rock face with jagged rocks. Despite the challenge, visitors find it worth the stop for its unique beauty and dog-friendly atmosphere. While some mention limited glass now compared to before, others appreciate exploring caves and collecting glass along this picturesque beach.Review score

Awesome Place to watch the waves crash with car parking nearby.
There is still some glass but closer to the rocks. I’ve seen lots of white and brown
I'll never travel without this trip planner again
