Razor Clamming Along Copalis Beach

If you are new to this hobby, a razor clam has a thin, long shell, and the meat is used in chowders and soups. It would be best to have a bucket and a shovel to dig for razor clams. The best time to find these clams is during winter when the water is coldest, typically from November until May. If you want to try this out, we have more information about razor clamming in our travel guide. Here are some additional tips about razor clamming near Surfcrest Resort.

– Razor Clamming can be enjoyed by children and seniors alike.

– You will need a shovel or a razor-clamming tube to dig up these creatures effectively.

– One of the best times to find clams is when the tide is low. You will find many people out with lanterns or flashlights on the beach when the sun goes down.

– Watch for updates or warnings about razor clamming in the area. Clams can digest marine toxins produced by some species of algae, and these toxins can sometimes be fatal to humans. So, inform yourself ahead of time.

– The Ocean Shores Chamber of Commerce website is a great resource. It provides organized dates for razor clam digging.
