They crawl. I think..
Just kidding
The underside of the starfish is covered with hundreds of tube feet, which it uses for walking around, for attaching tightly to rocks, and for holding on to prey. To move, each tube foot swings like a leg, lifting up and swinging forward, then planting itself on the ground and pushing back. At the tip of each tube foot (in most species) is a suction cup. These aren't used when walking on level ground, but can be used when walking up sheer surfaces.

on water it swims o' course, but on land, it has many tub feet unders it's arms. It creates a sort of low air pressure by pressing it's arms on the ground and pusing the air in it's tubes out. this provides good gripp and this pressure and grip is also utilized by it for capturing it's prey.......... not just that it also prevents some damage to it's central disc.
