There are many clams in the summer. You have to wait until the tide is low, around 7 or 8 in the evening, when it is still dark. Find a beach with few people, wade in the sand with your feet, and when you feel a clam, reach out and touch it. Be quick, because clams will run in the water. After you wade, you can shine a flashlight, and if there are clams, they will wade on the sand, so just pick them up.
