On the way back from Opotiki we came across at least 50 people waist deep in water collecting pippis and cockles. This is a regular collection bed for pippis and cockles. At low tide you can unearthed the shell fish by sifting the sand with your feet or hands. Pippis are fast burrowers, but by the fullness of the collecting buckets these guys knew their stuff.
