THE OCEAN LIGHT UP WITH TECHNICOLOUR CUTTLEFISH THIS TIME OF YEAR.

Despite being called the #chameleons of the sea for their ability to change colours to match their surroundings, #cuttlefish are actually completely blind. Impressive, right?

When: May to August

Where: Whyalla, South Australia

Between #May and #August each year, a swarm of #technicolour creatures can be seen gliding through #SouthAustraliasocean as over 100,000 giant #cuttlefish #migrate to the #shores near #Whyalla to breed. These beautifully coloured cuttlefish are #endemic to the Whyalla region, making the annual spawning all the more spectacular. Their #glisteningluminescentcolours can be spotted easily in the #shallowwaters, but for the best view, you’ll want to pop a #snorkel on to witness the full spectrum of these magnificent creatures.

How: Swim with giant cuttlefish on a two-day guided tour with @PurPuresa
