They look more like lobsters to me with their the long flexible body - but crab claws on the front. They are pelagic red crabs and normally aren't seen above San Diego. The warmer than average water temps have caused them to swarm as far as LA.

Great capture, I just this afternoon read about this infestation of the CA beaches. Excellent colors and detail. Jeff
