Last Stash of the Season

There is still time to find a glass float on the beach in Lincoln City, Oregon.

Finders Keepers is one of Lincoln City's defining events where visitors can find glass treasures on a seven-mile stretch of beach from Roads End to Siletz Bay. Throughout the season, volunteers lovingly known as Float Fairies, hide hand-made glass art pieces between the high tide line and the embankment. Throughout the season these numbered glass floats have been sought by eager treasure hunters. You find it...you keep it.

From mid-October through Memorial Day nearly 3000 handcrafted glass floats made by local artisans are hidden on the beach for beachcombers to find and keep. In addition to the numbered floats, visitors can find special art glass pieces on the beaches for upcoming holidays and commemorative occasions. These special drops include a combination of glass floats, sand dollars, crabs, sea stars, shells or coins.

Look for special drops on these upcoming dates this spring. For more information visit Finders Keepers
