WDFW approves seven days of coastal razor clam digs beginning Oct. 15 @ Check Website for Open Beaches and Low Tides
Oct 15 all-day

“It was a great first tide series of the season last week (Oct. 3-7) with soft wind, calm waves, and dry skies that resulted in mostly limits for those that came out,” said Bryce Blumenthal, a WDFW coastal shellfish biologist. “We are hoping this next tide series will bring similar success with lower and earlier tides that should allow for daylight digging opportunity the first few days.”

In early fall the beaches still have a lot of sand built up, which can make beach driving hazardous. WDFW asks diggers to drive carefully on the uppermost part of the hard-packed sand, avoid wet sand and not to create congestion leading on and off the beach by parking on the approaches.

The Washington Department of Health (DOH) requires test samples for marine toxins, and domoic acid levels must fall under the guideline level before a beach can open for digging. Domoic acid, a natural toxin produced by certain types of marine algae, can be harmful or fatal if consumed in sufficient quantities. Final approval usually occurs about a week or less – sometimes two to three days – before the start of each digging series. More information about domoic acid, as well as current levels at ocean beaches, can be found on the WDFW’s domoic acid webpage.

The following digs during evening (p.m.) low tides will proceed as scheduled, after marine toxin results from the DOH showed razor clams are safe to eat:

  1. Oct. 15, Tuesday, 5:31 p.m.; 0.5 feet; Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Mocrocks
  2. Oct. 16, Wednesday, 6:18 p.m.; -0.5 feet; Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Copalis
  3. Oct. 17, Thursday, 7:03 p.m.; -1.3 feet; Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Copalis
  4. Oct. 18, Friday, 7:49 p.m.; -1.7 feet; Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Mocrocks
  5. Oct. 19, Saturday, 8:35 p.m.; -1.7 feet; Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Mocrocks
  6. Oct. 20, Sunday, 9:24 p.m.; -1.4 feet; Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Copalis
  7. Oct. 21, Monday, 10:16 p.m.; -0.8 feet; Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Copalis

WDFW approves five days of coastal razor clam digs beginning Nov. 1 @ Check Website for Open Beaches and Low Tides
Nov 1 all-day

November will kick off with razor clam digging opportunities on four coastal beaches, Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) shellfish managers confirmed today.

“Our first fall storm arrived this past weekend, but that didn’t stop diggers from braving the elements and trying to get a limit,” said Bryce Blumenthal, WDFW’s recreational razor clam manager, “Hopefully the weather gives us a break for this next tide series from Nov. 1-5.”

The Washington Department of Health (DOH) requires testing of razor clam samples for marine toxins, and domoic acid levels must fall under the guideline level before a beach can open for digging. Domoic acid, a natural toxin produced by certain types of marine algae, can be harmful or fatal if consumed in sufficient quantities. Final approval usually occurs a few days to a week before the start of each dig series. More information about domoic acid, as well as current levels at ocean beaches, can be found on WDFW’s domoic acid webpage.

The following digs during evening (p.m.) low tides will proceed as scheduled, after marine toxin results from DOH showed razor clams are safe to eat:

  1. Nov 1, Friday, 7:15 p.m.; -0.2 feet; Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Mocrocks
  2. Nov 2, Saturday, 7:47 p.m.; -0.4 feet; Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Mocrocks (switch to standard time)
  3. Nov 3, Sunday, 7:22 p.m.; -0.4 feet; Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Copalis
  4. Nov 4, Monday, 8 p.m.; -0.3 feet; Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Copalis
  5. Nov 5, Tuesday, 8:42 p.m.; -0.1 feet; Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Mocrocks

Below are additional tentative dates:

  1. Nov 13, Wednesday, 4:15 p.m.; -0.2 feet; Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Mocrocks
  2. Nov 14, Thursday, 5:02 p.m.; -1.1 feet; Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Mocrocks
  3. Nov 15, Friday, 5:48 p.m.; -1.7 feet; Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Copalis

  15. Dec 12, Thursday, 4 p.m.; -0.5 feet; Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Copalis
  16. Dec 13, Friday, 4:50 p.m.; -1.2 feet; Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Mocrocks
  17. Dec 14, Saturday, 5:36 p.m.; -1.6 feet; Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Mocrocks
  18. Dec 15, Sunday, 6:21 p.m.; -1.6 feet; Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Copalis
  19. Dec 16, Monday, 7:05 p.m.; -1.5 feet; Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Copalis
  20. Dec 17, Tuesday, 7:48 p.m.; -1.1 feet; Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Mocrocks
  21. Dec 18, Wednesday, 8:31 p.m.; -0.5 feet; Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Mocrocks
  22. Dec 28, Saturday, 4:58 p.m.; 0.0 feet; Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Copalis
  23. Dec 29, Sunday, 5:36 p.m.; -0.4 feet; Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Mocrocks
  24. Dec 30, Monday, 6:14 p.m.; -0.7 feet; Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Mocrocks
  25. Dec 31, Tuesday, 6:51 p.m.; -1.0 feet; Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Copalis

No digging is allowed before noon during digs when low tide occurs in the afternoon or evening. Most successful digging occurs between one and two hours before the listed time of low tide.

In fall beaches still have a lot of sand built up, which can make driving hazardous. WDFW asks diggers to drive carefully on the uppermost part of the hard-packed sand, avoid wet sand, and not to create congestion leading on and off the beach by parking on the approaches.

All diggers 15 or older must have an applicable fishing license to harvest razor clams on any beach. Licenses can be purchased from WDFW’s licensing website, and from hundreds of license vendors around the state. WDFW recommends buying your license before visiting coastal beach communities.

The 2024-25 Razor Clam Management Plan is available on WDFW’s razor clam webpage.

The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife works to preserve, protect, and perpetuate fish, wildlife and ecosystems while providing sustainable fish and wildlife recreational and commercial opportunities.

“Our first fall storm arrived this past weekend, but that didn’t stop diggers from braving the elements and trying to get a limit,” said Bryce Blumenthal, WDFW’s recreational razor clam manager, “Hopefully the weather gives us a break for this next tide series from Nov. 1-5.”

The Washington Department of Health (DOH) requires testing of razor clam samples for marine toxins, and domoic acid levels must fall under the guideline level before a beach can open for digging. Domoic acid, a natural toxin produced by certain types of marine algae, can be harmful or fatal if consumed in sufficient quantities. Final approval usually occurs a few days to a week before the start of each dig series. More information about domoic acid, as well as current levels at ocean beaches, can be found on WDFW’s domoic acid webpage.

The following digs during evening (p.m.) low tides will proceed as scheduled, after marine toxin results from DOH showed razor clams are safe to eat:

  1. Nov 1, Friday, 7:15 p.m.; -0.2 feet; Long Beach, Twin Harbors, Mocrocks

No digging is allowed before noon during digs when low tide occurs in the afternoon or evening. Most successful digging occurs between one and two hours before the listed time of low tide.

In fall beaches still have a lot of sand built up, which can make driving hazardous. WDFW asks diggers to drive carefully on the uppermost part of the hard-packed sand, avoid wet sand, and not to create congestion leading on and off the beach by parking on the approaches.

All diggers 15 or older must have an applicable fishing license to harvest razor clams on any beach. Licenses can be purchased from WDFW’s licensing website, and from hundreds of license vendors around the state. WDFW recommends buying your license before visiting coastal beach communities.
