By the Bay Treasures is Charles, Heidi, Madison and Maya, in essence the Peden family. Our small family run business has evolved from our passions and hobbies into our way of life.
We will happily rappel, climb, kayak, & hike to difficult to access and bountiful beaches along the beautiful and rugged coastline of Northern California, in order to find treasures for you, such as genuine, pure beach sea glass, surf tumbled abalone shell, driftwood etc. |

We had a wonderful time at the Sea Glass Festival in Santa Cruz, CA October 6th and 7th of 2007. We had a booth at the festival and met several of our favorite customers/freinds from around country and beyond. Being involved in a film project at this time, we may not get out to Deleware for the festival this year (2009).
After the festival I took two small groups out on beach combing excursions where we found sea glass, abalone shell pieces and shells. We also enjoyed the marine flora and fauna. We now provide guided beach combing excursions and kayaking excursions to fellow sea glass aficionados everywhere. |

In October of 2005, I put on a sea glass exhibition in conjunction with a book signing that Richard LaMotte was holding at a wondeful gift shop/gallery in Half Moon Bay, CA. While there, Richard LaMotte, the author of (Pure Sea Glass) had suggested that we form some sort of association to further the interests of sea glass collectors and artisans. As a result of that initial meeting, I and several others including him have been instrumental in forming the North American Sea Glass Association, (NASGA).
With discovering my abilities as a medium I found that I had to scale back my involvment with NASGA. After having co-founded the association, acting as president and hosting a successful sea glass festival I found that I had to focus more on my new path. I remain on as a commercial member.
Beach combing is an activity which our whole family enjoys. We collect all of the sea glass sold by us ourselves or with the help of other immediate and extended family members, and do not hire people outside of our family to collect for us. This ensures that you only receive the highest quality 100% natural, surf tumbled beach sea glass.

To the surprise of many, including myself, I found out on January 24th of 2006, that I am able to communicate with earthbound spirits (ghosts) and with spirits of friends and loved ones on the "other side". As I experienced a rapid unfolding of my capabilities I quickly adapted to my new found abilities.
After succesfully channeling several deceased relatives for friends and family, I began to do readings for the general public. Several months after begining to do readings, I found myself communicating with a cat who was over a thousand miles away. Now I am able to communicate with nearly all species of animals living or passed.Click here to visit my site, www.charlespeden.com dedicated to my psychic abilities.
