Crab in the Surf

Here’s a crab in the surf from the Bazaruto Archipelago in Mozambique.

As you walk along the open sea side of the island there are many of these crabs which scuttle into the surf, and then seem to disappear in the next wave. I still don’t know if they are just washed away, or simply looking for food on the sea bottom. There is no shortage of crabs on the beach, suggesting that they come back on the incoming tide?
