-Spiny lobsters get their name from forward-pointing spines that cover their bodies to help protect them from predators.
-They have a reddish brown shell, marked with occasional dark spots and two large, cream-colored spots on the top of the second segment of the tail.
-They have long, horn-like antennae over their eyes that they wave to scare off predators, and smaller antennae-like “antennules” that sense movement and detect chemicals in the water.
-Unlike the American lobster, they lack large front claws.
-They are harvested for their tail meat. Items marketed as “lobster tail” are usually from spiny lobster.

Raw tail meat is nearly translucent, with a pink, cream or whitish-gray tint, depending on the animal’s diet. Cooked meat should be firm and snowy white with red tinges but no dark spots.

Also called Rock Lobsters, we offer the Lobsters in both Live and Frozen forms.
