Close Encounters with Cuttlefish at Wakatobi
At Wakatobi, scuba divers regularly encounter cuttlefish, fascinating creatures known for their eight arms and color-changing abilities. These unique animals thrive in the vibrant reefs and offer great opportunities for photographers due to their cooperative nature and ability to change color rapidly. The broadclub cuttlefish is the most commonly seen type in the area, but divers may also spot the flamboyant cuttlefish at night. Thankfully, cuttlefish are thriving in Wakatobi’s protected marine preserve, even as they face threats from human activities elsewhere.
