Wished I could help. On St.John most the North Shore beaches are not shelling beaches and if it is in the National Park you are not allowed to take them. Now there are no "shell police" :$)you would probably feel guilty doing it. I am not sure of any places and i have never seen any sea glass there either. Sorry and hope you find a good place.

Have a good trip:D

In STT: Dorothea Beach and Hull Bay Beach! You promised not to tell!!! 😉

Sherri,

Thanks, Gal!

I promise not to tell a sole:D I did some homework last evening and found a few more areas to hunt on STT. I can tell you, and you alone, that I find Sea glass (and other sweet surprises- read below) in both corners of the beach - at Bolongo Bay - shhhh *-)

Now for all you folks that collect Sea glass and a few shells, you might also enjoy hunting "Sea-Beans". Once you find one - you'll be hooked. Sea beans drift up onto the wrack line, with plant debris, after traveling thousands of miles over the Caribbean before washing up on a beach. There is a large assortment just waiting for you to discover and take them home to put in a pretty jar or basket. Many people polish them and make memory necklaces or hand them out as a "Friendship Token."

Unlike seashells, sea beans don't lose color over time, and their impervious to pounding waves. They can be a few days old or even as old as a decade. I search for sea hearts, purses, bay beans, nickernuts, Mary's beans, just to name a few. My favorite bean to find is the Sea heart (Entada gigas). I love the blackish purple color that has a small indentation at the top and can be a couple of inches across. They come from the vine called "monkey ladder" and grow wild in Costa Rica. They produce giant pods that can be 6 feet long and can grow 15 sea hearts to a pod. After the pod opens, the hearts drops into a stream that empties into the ocean. Hopefully, they will wash up on a beach you just happened to be walking over.

The most memorable part of anyones vacation, is to bring home a piece of paradise they can hold in their hand - while having the time of their life!

It's all about making memories 😉

On STJ checkout Drunk Bay opposite the salt pond form Salt Pond Bay.

Ahhhhh, your a Sweetheart, Rick - thanks for the tip. We will take my Sissy there and check it out. We are taking her along this year because she deserves a trip.

Happy hunting!

I have lots of luck finding sea glass on Frank Bay in STJ. This is not a sandy beach, so you need beach shoes to walk on this rocky beach. this is where I find all of my " St. John Emeralds"... smooth green glass with lovely patina.

Andaste,
I have collected some seeds that have floated up 'cause they seemed unique, but never realized all that you had to offer! There are so many different kinds! Now for me to figure out what is what? I will be sure to keep my eyes open! 🙂
MUM'S the word!

Sherri,

If you want to find out more about all the floater's coming to shore, just do a search on the net. You will get a lot of info about collecting these beauties.
MUM is the word*-)
