Coral Coast

Zum Abschluss der achtteiligen Reihe führt die Tour an die wilde Korallenküste im Westen Australiens. Dort gibt es nicht nur Spuren von drei Milliarden Jahre alten Lebensformen, sondern auch die größten Fische der Welt zu erforschen.

On Australia's windswept coast, Neil Oliver investigates why no one survived the attack on HMAS Sydney in its dramatic battle with a German raider in 1941. Xanthe Mallett heads to the Houtman Abrolhos islands and unearths the gruesome tale of the Dutch Batavia murders of 1629. In Shark Bay, Tim Flannery finds 3 billion-year-old life, while Neil Oliver finds out why Carnarvon's extraordinary jetty was once the lifeblood of the Gascoyne region. Emma Johnston witnesses why the world's largest fish keeps returning to the crystal waters of Ningaloo Reef, and Brendan Moar catches up with coastal nomads off the grid, on the edge of the continent.
