Lights & Headlamps
Many productive digs happen in low light. Reliable lighting makes it easier to identify shows, handle gear, and move safely around the beach.
Use a Headlamp
A headlamp keeps both hands available for a shovel or clam gun and points light where you are looking.
Bring a Backup
Salt spray, batteries, and accidental drops can disable a light. Carry a small backup flashlight or second headlamp.
Protect Night Vision
Use enough light to see the sand clearly without constantly shining bright beams toward other diggers.
