Marine Biologist help please




So we went beach combing this morning here in Koh Lanta and discovered an interesting sight. Poo, we first thought, but then discovered it was growing.


Upon closer examination we figured out that some sea critter was deep in the sand and pushing a continuous tube of sand out of the ground.


It grew at about two inches a minute. We tried to dig deep under it but the critter was either quite deep or very fast because we were unable to apprehend it. We then noticed the little piles everywhere along the beach right at the surf line.


Can anyone help us figure out what our mysterious critter is?

After that Grant decided to go explore a bit more.


What is this he says?


Check it out


Two flip flops....



Oh wait it's a hermit crab.

Had a great day on the beach and exploring the island.
