Do you see how fast those feelers (antennas) are going? The outer pair is used for touch and feel and the inner pair that looks a bit bent is used to taste and smell. This fella is known as the Giant Spotted Hermit Crab, one of our favourites to watch and observe underwater.

Why would an octopus pancake itself against a rock, tentacles spread out like it’s doing the world’s slowest snow angel? Well, this sneaky sea ninja is on a mission: either it’s avoiding becoming someone’s sushi or getting ready to surprise its next meal. With its body flatter than your Monday morning mood and colors that would make a chameleon jealous, it’s basically saying, “You can’t see me!” This octopus is the ultimate hide-and-seek champion of the ocean, and it’s not losing any time soon!

Coral polyps up close ... Coral polyps produce calcium carbonate to create a hard and protective limestone exoskeleton known as calicles forming a supportive rocky structure to grow on. Corals also have growth rigs just like trees. They only grow 1-2 cm every year, so next time you step on coral and break off 10cm, just know you are throwing away about 10 years growth. These babies are well worth protecting! They are home to animals, a food source and protect our coastline from serious wave energy.

We would like to give a big shoutout to Mike for sharing a video and photos with us. It’s always nice to know what people find on the dolphin coast, try and identify these animals and learning more about them.
