Here’s a very large octopus that we encountered a few minutes into the first dive we did of our recent Mozambique trip, to the ever-surprising reef called Doodles. He was standing about a metre out of a very small hole in the reef, looking scary. When he did withdraw into the reef, he couldn’t fit his whole body into the hole he’d chosen!
