AMAZING animals. I'm going soon and considering a night dive. I heard the Octopus were all over and that they could pull your mask off and stuff. Is this true? Great video.
Night dives are typically held close to the cruise ships in the protected areas given the current farther out. Yes, there are usually several octopi encountered during a night dive, along with grouper (which will use your light to hunt by) sleeping fish and the occasional eel. As for the octopus pulling off your mask - not probable given how skiddish they are - they usually run for cover or at least keep their distance. Thanks for the kind remarks about the video. Enjoy!!!
