Stunning Destinations You Won't Believe Are In The USA

9. Glimmering Glass Beach

Glass Beach, located two hours north of San Francisco in Fort Bragg, Northern California, is a stunning sight. It is a combination of three locations with shores lined with tumbled glass formed and smoothed via waves and pressure. Treasure such as this comes from the persistent dumping of garbage into nearby bluffs until approximately 1967. With two of three beach locations accessible by foot and a third requiring a kayak or other water transport, there is plenty of glass in all different shapes and sizes, often remnants of old car lights or other glass-based products. What was once garbage is now so valuable that it is a misdemeanor to remove the glass from the beach. Leaf peepers will do well to check out such a fantastic highlight of American sites to visit.
