Have you been Ghost Crab Hunting? Found on beaches throughout the world, ghost crabs make burrows in the sand during the day and come out at night. Grab a flashlight, a net and work on your speed and you just might happen to catch one next time you are the beach! Soph managed to snag one during our hunt, then we released him back to the ocean! | Consistently Curious

This is why we offer free red filters for flashlights at both locations of our Welcome
