The daylight that falls on the rocks and on the sea undulation, which makes waves break more than 10 meters high, is noticeable at this depth. Our octopus returns from the night hunt, walking silently with eight sucker arms on the sandy bottom, whose color is the same as its own. A small crack in the rock marks the entrance to its home, but the strong night current filled it with debris from algae and sand. Intolerable for the octopus! It begins to clean it by removing debris with the tip of its tentacles, and blowing jets of water with the help of its siphon to expel unwanted sand. Then, it enters its nest, to which its body without a skeleton perfectly adapts to. It finally closes the entrance with the help of a stone picked up nearby, and sleeps hidden from all eyes.
