On the Atlantic side of Green Turtle Cay which is part of the Abaco Islands in the Bahamas, we found quite a lot of sea glass.
I would rate the beach as fair.
We found a few frosted, well-rounded pieces, but most of it was chipped, and unrounded.
We found white, green, and amber pieces.
I think the beach was unnamed, and there was only one very small town on the cay called New Plymouth.
A boat or ferry is necessary to get to Green Turtle.
The beach was not crowded and was easily accessible by golf cart from New Plymouth.

Disclaimer
OdysseySeaGlass appreciates this and all reports we receive. However, when evaluating a report, use good judgment. Note:
No photos were included with this report.
Beach was not given a clear rating (stating number of jewelry-grade pieces found per hour).
As always, we remind folks that sea glass beach reports are not confirmed by Lin or me at Odyssey Sea Glass unless otherwise stated.
Reports that do not include photos of the sea glass found are less reliable. So use your own judgement in deciding whether to travel to this particular beach or not.

Many happy memories swirled back into my mind when I saw your pictures. I spent my childhood on the beaches of Cape Cod and we spent many happy hours looking
for sea glass.”

Love your sea glass web site. I enjoy your picture of the month and intend on winning at least once.
I have been collecting and creating things from sea glass for over twenty years. I find my sea glass on the beautiful shores of Lake Erie in Cleveland Ohio.
Thank you for sharing your treasures with me.” Yours truly,

“Just wanted to let you know (since you were so helpful) that I won a blue ribbon (1st place) in Gifford Middle School Science Fair in the category of Environmental Science with my topic - Effect of a Florida Tidal Inlet on Wrack Line Sea Glass Volume.
Now, I will compete in the Regional Science Fair which will take place on Feb 2nd. My mom and dad and I had a lot of fun searching for sea glass.
Thanks,”
