Northland scallop season opens
Northland's scallop season opens on Saturday 1st September and runs through until the 31st of March. The Ministry for Primary Industries is reminding those taking scallops to be aware of their obligations. A few things to remember are:
- The minimum legal size for scallops is 100mm.
- The maximum daily limit is 20 per person
- One diver can also gather scallops for up to two other people acting in a dive safety capacity from that vessel.
- All scallops must be in a measurable state when taken ashore.
