There is a small beach located northwest of the Southworth ferry immediately off of Olympiad Dr. in the Port Orchard area. The access to the beach is limited but quite easy to navigate on foot from Olympiad Dr. The street runs just a few feet off of the beach for about 800 feet. There are wide spots to park at either end of the 800 foot section that parallels the beach. At high tide debris is blown up onto the road and across onto the front yards of local homes. At low tides the beach spreads to the west from the road access for an additional 1/3 of a mile.

Sea Glass: The sea glass found on Olympiad Dr. beach was moderately abundant and easy to accumulate. It seemed to be primarily Craft quality, quite large and thick. Enjoy the hunt. There is more glass on this beach to be found.
