Red Sea Ghost Crab (Ocypode saratan)

I found a huge number of this species. At night they were crawling everywhere on land – wherever I walked these crabs were foraging.

These shots are at sunset, and they were very busy on the beach.

None of the other beaches I visited had a population like this.
