Clam Jam Still Meeting Its Goal of Bringing Surf Community Together, 10 Years In

For10 years now, local apparel company Jetty, has held its Clam Jam each fall. At its root, it’s a surf contest. But it’s also a celebration of Island surfing and the local community at large.

One of the aspects of the contest that keeps it a beloved event is the fact that it’s run “on call,” meaning the date of the Clam Jam is determined by the waves. Once the window period opens the first weekend after Chowderfest, it can be run any Saturday or Sunday with good swell and conditions.
