Where to find shellfish

[gurnoid]

Hi I am looking to go finding crabs and razor clams at the weekend can anyone help me out and tell my any good spots in Yorkshire or about 2 hours from Leeds where it's good to find shellfish I'm staving

Head for the coast as they live in the sea.
Razor clams like flat sandy beaches crabs prefer rocky ones.

Take a lighter with you when you go dude. They're no good raw.

Razors and scallops are nice, think sushi.

I'm yet to dig up one of those razorclams to be honest. I imagine them to be a more tender version of boiled mussels.

Like an even sweeter scallop really lovely things.

I wouldn't eat raw crab by the way, it needs to be cooked.

Don't you boil lobsters then?

They are nice BBQ'd right enough.

Steamed is better (than boiled that is)
