A new Australian documentary is bringing national attention to a silent crisis beneath our southern seas.

From Bermagui, May 2025

Maybe when the coastal weather warning is, ‘Dangerous and hazardous seas’, it is a pretty good idea to stay out of the ocean. Those were the warnings for the entire NSW coastline on 18 and 19 April.
