You don't see them very often during the day but they are one of the best things to find at night. Look at that alien changing colors as he hides from me.
General Check out this octopus I found while night diving...

Nice. What parts do you dive in?
The little lady and all her family are big into diving but I have yet to take a course / get certified. Her family has a place in the Bahamas so some great diving opportunities. As well where we are here off west coast of BC but I always feel its one of those hobbies that take more effort than they appear to be worth. So much gear to buy and maintain, planning, yada yada
They have a bunch of blue holes all over the islands in the Bahamas that make for some crazy cave diving inland and even a few in the ocean. The island they have a place off is near what is referred to as the Tongue of the Ocean which is a massive drop off past the coral reefs that make for some great snorkeling, fishing and (apparently) diving.
Never seen an octopus though.

I kept looking at the stupid ass tiny fish wondering when the camera was gonna pan to an octopus. Then I realized one of the stupid small fish was an octopus.

The jealousy I feel right now is so severe.
Seriously, though, they are so amazing and beautiful. Best animal, ever.

Then why you monologuing in Splint's thread? This is an "I saw an octopus" thread, not a "I heard it's fun to dive in the tropics" thread. Yeesh!
Nice find, Splint.
Bad ass my dude.

There is no way in hell you could get me in that water, especially at night. If I fell in, I would die of shock.
On top of a hatred of seafood, I also fear the ocean. I went to the Mayan Riviera with my wife and she wanted to snorkel. I didn’t want to look like a bitch, so I agreed. Thankfully there was an obese elderly lady in the group so I always stayed closer in than her. I figured she was the bait for whatever awful sea creature wanted to chow down on us.
The saltwater was disgusting and I wouldn’t even look down for about the first twenty minutes. When I finally got the nerve to look. the first thing that I saw was a fucking stingray, the hellspawn that killed Steve Irwin. Well apparently it was like a manta ray or some shit but it made no difference to me in the moment. It was the devil’s personal attack fish as far as I was concerned.
Fuck the ocean. I’ll pay good money to any coastal TMMAC’er that will buy a couple boxes of plastic drinking straws along with some plastic six pack rings and throw them into the sea! I’m so glad Alberta is landlocked.
Maybe it's time to change that SN to something more fitting like MY WIFE HAS BIGGER BALLS THAN ME.
What part of “I went and did it” went over your head?
You have over 12 000 posts in just over three years. Something tells me that you aren’t much of a world traveller or daredevil either!

@girlandcoconut is an octopus fan. They're amazing creatures. I shook hands with one when diving in Marbella and we saw one swimming in Ibiza.
