Description

Our cameraman manages to capture some circling sharks, a host of colourful nudibranchs and a rare hermit crab after braving rough waters and powerful surges at Aliwal Shoal in South Africa. The area’s infamous currents don’t seem to trouble the resident turtles as they cruise the reef.
