The South Komodo shoreline. Cooler water from the upwellings of the south coast provide a nutrient rich environment in this area. The high densities of plankton attract many large filter feeding manta rays, which can normally be seen swimming right at the surface along the shores and rocks of South Komodo from September to January. The water near shore is quite shallow (5 - 20m) and there are many large rocks and boulders in between which we can find huge malabar grouper, potato cod, napoleon wrasse and schools of surgeon fishes and bohar snappers. There is usually current at the site.
