Scallop cleaning at Keaton

[THOMAS CITY CURVE]

My friends and I have heard recently that you can pay to have your scallops cleaned somewhere at Keaton beach. Was hoping someone could help with who does it and how much they charge.

I guess we shall bring the spoons....

There's folks right by the cleaning station at the marina that will do it. Not sure what they charge. There's also a sign up by the gas station as you near the public landing indicating someone over by Dekle will do it for you.

Thanks for the info ddb

I thought cleaning them was part of the experience?

[THOMAS CITY CURVE]

It is a large part of the experience. The part we don't want to do 4 days in a row.

I saw their sign, seemed to me I could buy scallops in a store for the amount they wanted for cleaning, but maybe I misunderstood the amount.

I've talked with them several time and they are careful and clean in their work. We clean our own but my nephew had some cleaned. They did a good job. I'd give it a try if you have the money. I think you would be satisfied.

$8 per cleaned lb. This is about 2 gallons whole
They do a good job
