Trying to find out info on where I might find good clamming. Doesn't seem to be any books out there on the topic. I am familiar with west coast of the US clamming and suppose it isn't a whole lot different in PEI? Thanks for the assist!

Hello Jay,

There are lots of beaches on the south side of Prince Edward Island that have public access and would be great for digging clams. A few of my favourites are Argyle Shore, Canoe Cove, Mont Carmel and Pinette.

To find out about the regulations on allowable amounts and sizes, and to find out about possible area closures, click here.
