One of the world's most spectacular marine migrations is now on. During the Australian autumn and winter months when the water cools, lucky divers can witness the annual spider crab migration in Port Philip Bay, Victoria, Australia. Crabs congregate in the thousands and begin their march, thought to be part of their mating ritual. Check out this fascinating video captured recently by PADI diver PT Hirschfield.
