The Blue Land Crab has a natural range from Bermuda, the Caribbean Sea, Texas and Southern Florida. Around Mariner Sands, these crabs occur in low-lying parts of coastal areas, but are rarely around more than 5 miles from the coast. They are easily identified by one claw that is larger than the others, by quite a bit. As a juvenile, the crab is a dark brown, purple or orange in color. As an adult, it is a bluish-gray color, though females may appear light gray or white.

The region, whose name refers to the Spanish Treasure Fleet lost in a 1715 hurricane, emerged from residents’ desire to distinguish themselves from Miami and the Gold Coast region.
