It is not entirely straightforward to use an amber flashlight, but it is easy to learn.

Frants Kristensen begins with some general knowledge about amber and how to find it. Which wind is the most favorable, and what should one consider regarding water levels and the different types of beaches? It is also important to know how amber is deposited and what it washes up with.

Frants explains the use of flashlights and what to pay extra attention to when walking in the dark. It is also important to have tips on how to orient oneself so one can find their way back.

Then we take a trip to the beach and use flashlights to find amber. Everyone receives small pieces of amber in different colors so that one knows how the amber looks when illuminated with the flashlight.

Please bring your own amber flashlight.
