Additional information

All diggers age 16 or older must have a valid 2026-2027 license to harvest razor clams on any beach. Licenses are available on WDFW’s website, through the MyWDFW mobile app, or from statewide license dealers and WDFW regional offices. WDFW recommends diggers buy their license before visiting coastal beach communities.

When driving on the beach, please respect the 25-mph speed limit and enter only at designated access points. Stay on the hard-packed sand near the high tide line to avoid crushing clam beds, buried female Dungeness crab and snowy plover nests.

The 2026-2027 Razor Clam Management Plan will be available soon on the WDFW’s website. WDFW welcomes public input on proposed razor clam schedules and considers this feedback when finalizing each season’s digs. Public comments may be emailed to: razorclams@dfw.wa.gov. For more information, refer to the WDFW’s razor clam webpage.

Fishery managers note that as a result of legislatively directed budget reductions, the Department will have less staff capacity to survey razor clams and support marine toxin analysis, which could result in delayed season opening and reduced opening days. More information is available in WDFW’s blog post.

WDFW works to preserve, protect, and perpetuate fish, wildlife and ecosystems while providing sustainable fish and wildlife recreational and commercial opportunities.

Make sure you are on an approved and OPEN beach before you start digging. 

Be sure to check out the Razor Clam Society Beach Map to know where and when to dig.

2025-2026 recreational hunting and fishing licenses are required as of April 1, 2025

The DAILY LIMIT per person is 15 clams, no matter what condition they are in, once removed from the sand, the clams must be kept. Digging is prohibited in the razor clam reserve located just south of the Ocean City approach on Copalis, which are marked by 10-foot poles with signs. Always check with official sources if you have any questions. All diggers age 15 or older must have an applicable fishing license to harvest razor clams on any beach. And, each digger must keep their razor clams in a separate container. Don’t mix your clams. Licenses, ranging from a three-day razor clam license to an annual combination fishing license, are available from license vendors around the state and WDFW’s licensing customer service number at (360) 902-2464————————————————
