Details
There are two species of Tuatua in New Zealand, one found in the North Island, and the other in the South. Tuatua move up and down the beach (usually at night) when the tide is favourable, and burrow under the sand once the tide changes.
They are usually harvested when there is a very low tide. People feel for the shellfish with their feet, only grasping them with their hands when they have located a group.
