How to Get Manila Clams Fast

Farming Manila Clams quickly

Manila Clam Water Spray
Manila clams will continuosly spawn on the beach, but they will be buried in the sand and not lying around.

You can tell where they are buried by a small spray of water coming up from the sand. Even after the water spray disappears the Manila clam will still be buried there, so keep digging even if you miss on your first try!

If you are searching for this type of seashell in particular, our recommendation is walking up and down the beach while keeping an eye out for water shooting up. They will keep spawning, so you can find as many as you want.

I don't think they can spawn on mystery or kapp'n islands — I need bait but because i'm massively breeding flowers, my beach is full of my normal island stuff. So I can't get to Manila clams. And I can't find any on tours or mystery islands
