First you need a permit

I don't know that there are any edible crabs here (along the shore) but there are lots of clams and mussels. When my hub was clamming many years ago we sold them to a place in Chatham. You will have to do a search for Cape Cod Fish Markets and take it from there - I don't know their policies or even if they all follow the same rules...
