Collecting what?

Don't know what's up here. Low tide on the estuary and a huge group of folks heading out with boots, rakes and carts. Just another day in coastal Spain, I guess 🤷
ПутешественникMaybe oysters? We did that on prince Edward Island I think
ПутешественникOyster collecting. Each person can collect 8 kilos and sell them to restaurants or the fish market. Since it can only be done at low tide in designated areas, today was the day.
