18 January 2021 – Macro Diving at South Solitary Island

With the wind dropping off this morning 2Wild headed out to South Solitary for today’s subaquatic adventure!
First up our divers rolled in at Manta Arch for a swim to Cleaner Station, several pairs of large Grey Nurse were seen in the deep gutter, along with Banded Coral Shrimp, Nudibranchs and a Mantis Shrimp.
After the surface interval our divers dropped in at the Back Gutter and Shark Gutters for a swim to South Boulder. The divers that got in at the Back Gutter saw 20+ Grey Nurse sharks before swimming through the gap. Meanwhile the group that got in at shark Gutters saw several different spieces of Nudibranchs, Grey Nurse Sharks, a pair of Orangutan Crabs, and a Southern Peacock Sole.
