Unknown worm of some type.

[LoboMX]

I was out on a fun dive and working with our DC800 camera for the 4th time ever when I came across this thing.

I've looked and looked for information on what this might be and I can't find anything. On the right hand side you can see a little eye hole of some kind. It was just poking around in the sand.

Helping Information:
Location: Manzanillo, Colima, Mexico
Size: About 2-3 inches
Depth: About 25 feet
Time of Day: Noonish

Thanks for any help.

I imagine it is some kind of exposed sub-benthic worm.

Thank you Sully3 for the info! It's been bugging me since I got the photo because I'm trying to catalog the life I get pictures of around here.
