Crabs are a crowd favorite with tide pool enthusiasts. The easiest place to find crabs is under rocks. Carefully lift a medium-size rock and watch the crabs scuttle into hiding. Look carefully and you’ll find red rock crabs, pygmy rock crabs, hermit crabs and others.
Why they’re cool: The pinchers. The side-scuttle. Need we say more?
Up next: sea cucumber
