I'm looking for information about where to find cleaners ie, snails and shrimps in the corpus christi area. I go to the beach a bit and I'd like to know where to find a few wild local critters. Something me and my daughter like to do.... thank you.

I'm not very familiar with the Corpus Christi area but if you can find snails and hermits pretty much anywhere bayside that has the salt grass growing in the water near the road. Porcelain crabs, hermit crabs, ghost shrimp, seahorses, snails, pistol shrimp.. etc can all be found in those areas hiding under shell, rocks, and in the grasses. If you drive around to Port Aransas and go the jetties there you will also find an abundance of critters. My kids also love scooping up the sargasm grass floating at the beach. It's always loaded with different types of fish and invertebrates. I am sure someone from Corpus will chime in here for some more specific spots in the Corpus area also.
