Description

Commonly found along the beaches on the Pacific Coast, the pacific sand crab buries itself in the wet sand awaiting the incoming tide. As the waves roll in, this little crustacean extends its eyes and antennae, projecting them above the surface to catch its share of the plankton floating past. It is often used by surf fisherman for bait.
