The purpose of this research was to estimate density changes of sea sand by washing. To examine water content test, field density test, particle density test and measuring of dump regarding extracted sea sand and selling one. Measured result of mean particle density of barge and dump were $2.666g/cm^3$, $2.651g/cm^3$, respectively. Also, measured result of field density for each sea sand was $1.716g/cm^3$, $1.331g/cm^3$ on average. Converted to the volume of 1ton of each sea sand, $0.583m^3$, $0.751m^3$, respectively. Occurring to volume change approximately 28.8% on average. The mean field densities of measuring of sea sand that dump and barge were $1.398g/cm^3$ and $1.716g/cm^3$ respectively. This values indicated $0.715m^3$ and $0.583m^3$ each, when converted to the volume of sea sand 1ton. It was found that the average of 22.6% volume change occurred between the amount of sea sand and the sales volume.
