Octopus move through water by a foot. The foot extends from either the mouth or the stomach. The foot takes them around to where they want to be. The only difference is that this foot is nothing like a human foot.

Sometimes it crawls, other times it moves by propulsion (dispelling water from its siphon).

How do squid and octopuses move quickly away from predators?

Octopuses and squids can also move by using a form of jet propulsion. Water is drawn into the mantle cavity and then forced out through a tube, propelling the cephalopods backwards from danger. In addition, squids and octopuses produce a dark-colored ink when the are frightened. As this ink is released into the water, it helps to hide the mollusks/squids/octopuses and confuse its predators
