Liujiawan Tidal Flat
刘家湾赶海园
A vast mudflat south of Rizhao that is exposed at low tide, where you can dig for clams and catch crabs. It is the top choice for family clam-digging outings.
Liujiawan Tidal Flat Park is in Taoluo Town, about 20 km south of Rizhao city center. It is a wide expanse of sand and mud that exposes hundreds of meters of flats at low tide. The flats are rich in mussels, clams, small crabs and sea snails. The park rents rakes, small buckets and rain boots, and admission costs about 20 to 30 yuan. Always check the tide table in advance. The best time is 1 to 2 hours before and after low tide, and you should leave the flats promptly when the tide comes in. Bring a change of clothes and sun protection, and do not take young creatures home. It takes about 30 minutes by car or taxi.
