Mackay Crabs!

Mackay is home to 2.6 quadrigazillion crabs. You can’t see them but they’re there. Once the tide moves out they come out of the sand and eat all the algae that was left by the tide. They leave little balls of sand from which they sucked the life. They move in groups of a couple of hundred to a few thousand and from afar it looks like the entire beach is crawling.
