Clam Digging Beaches?

Post by Chevayea »

Hey, with the great low tides tomorrow, does anyone know of some stellar beaches to dig horse clams and steamers? Does anyone have any input on an open beach where I can get both types of clams here on the Puget Sound within an hour or so of the Seattle area?

I love Shine Tidelands (Hood Canal Bridge), but they are only open during the winter.

:dontknow:
I have never done Clam digging.
But yeah, the tide today, at noon, is the lowest of this year (I think)
It would be a good beach comber day for the non divers in our lives. :supz:

I'd be more interested in beaches that aren't closed due to red-tide. Seems like most I've seen have warnings posted.

All in King County, and many around Tacoma are closed due to pollution. It's not true "red tide" but treated as though the beach was always under the effect of red tide.

Camano Island is a good option. Lots of steamers!
