Hi Everyone,

I love to snorkel & have been to the Bahamas 3 times now. The Bahamas, which is the home of Dean's Blue Hole one of the deepest blue holes in the world at approximately 600' deep. While there I was snorkeling in the shallow bay next to Dean's & saw this unusual crab. It has a beautiful shell with the very sharp points along the edge. it was walking along the sand & when I reached towards the crab it disappeared into the sand immediately! None of the locals could ID it, nor had they ever seen one like it! Maybe someone here can help me out with the identification? Thank you, Bill
