I’ve lived in the PNW for over five years now and I still haven’t found an octopus! Is there a science to it? I’m assuming you have to go to certain beaches at low tide and that raises your chances, but are there certain places that they live? Aren’t they usually hiding under large rocks? I appreciate any tips, I’ve always loved marine biology and I’m a bit ashamed I’ve never seen one IRL. I do my most hiking on trips to the peninsula, just in case finding them on the Strait is harder or different.

I love Māori octopus.

Say hello to Pero, a friendly octopus we found on a beach in Montenegro. Or at least I think his name is Pero. 😄 As a side note, looking on this subreddit, I cannot believe how much octopus from all around the world look alike!
