Oct/Nov 2020

Fall is here and with the pandemic there is not much going on at the beaches. The latest upcoming razor clam tides have been cancelled due to high toxin levels. Hopefully later in November we can get back to clam digs. Also stay safe if digging continues as all the tides are at night.

The tentative razor clam digs through December, along with low tides and beaches, are listed below:

Razor clam managers with the agency previously announced tentative digs through December, providing opportunities to dig while maintaining social distancing.

Final approval of tentatively scheduled openings depends on results of marine toxin tests conducted by Washington’s Department of Health (DOH).

Public health officials will also be closely monitoring COVID-19 infection rates throughout the digging season, and WDFW may make in-season adjustments to the schedule if necessary to reduce public health risks. Beach Blog Diane,Grays Harbor Beaches
