October 29, 2025
A tourist from Blackburn, Cyprus, has developed a unique friendship with a small octopus. They met when Matthew Hyatt was exploring a shipwreck, and the octopus came to greet him. They swim together every day for about an hour, with Matthew gently touching the octopus. Matthew is thrilled by the experience, describing it as incredible. He decided not to feed the octopus to ensure it can find its own food.
