On Tuesday ABC screens Southern Ocean Live with hosts Hamish Macdonald and Dr Ann Jones located at Phillip Island’s Penguin Parade.

Throughout the special they will be crossing live to special guests, and telling the stories of incredible creatures, including the resident fairy penguins.

Not far away, marine scientists Sheree Marris, Lucas Handley and Dr Dean Miller will be reporting, from under the water, the remarkable stories of giant spider crabs, giant cuttlefish and the other sea creatures who also appear in the extraordinary chain of reefs that make up the coastline of Southern Australia including whales, dolphins, seals, albatross, and great white sharks.

This has been produced by Northern Pictures, who were also behind Reef Live in 2020.
