Safety Guide

Razor clamming is generally straightforward, but the ocean, darkness, cold, and slippery equipment deserve respect.

Watch the Ocean

Stay aware of incoming waves and changing surf. Do not become so focused on the sand that you lose track of the water.

Dress for Cold and Wet Conditions

Wear layers and waterproof outerwear. Bring dry clothing in the vehicle, especially for children.

Use Tools Carefully

Clam shovels and metal clam guns can cause injuries if handled carelessly. Maintain spacing between diggers and keep hands clear of blades and tube edges.
