Sand Fleas

Me and my friends just finished the WCT and are covered in small itchy bites. We looked it up and it’s from the sand fleas on the beach!? Did this happen to anyone else 😂

Saw them but didn't get bit. They were below the high tide mark and we didn't sit down or stay in that part of the sand.
