Labrid Channel Poor Knights

The Labrid Channel flows between Archway Island and Aorangi Island towards Eastern Arch. The current through the channel can be strong on the surface with the wind, but it brings a great food source and is always full of fish. On the rocks and walls a myriad of nudibranchs can be found. An exciting place to dive

Shoaling, koheru, snapper, kingfish, demoiselles and blue mao mao dance in the water column. Stingrays, wrasse and porae hug the bottom. Manta ray have been seen in summer.
