SOLITARY ISLANDS
UNDERWATER
RESEARCH GROUP, INC.

This year’s camping trip was to Illaroo Campground near Minnie Water in the Yuraygir National Park. SURG members had a great time enjoying the wildlife, the peace and quiet of the park and the opportunity to socialise with club members. Two of the more active in the group made their way to the end of a rocky headland, immersed themselves in rock pools and found some interesting sea slug specimens.

Here are some photos of the wildlife (thanks to Ian Shaw) that we saw on this trip.
