A new series of Abalone Wars begins on Discovery later this month.

The three part series, filmed off the South Australian coastline, begins 8:30pm Wednesday 21 October.

The abalone dive crews of South Australia are back again battling the elements, fulfilling multi-million dollar quotas and playing roulette with their nemesis – the Great White Shark. This season, the divers have to confront an insidious new threat to their industry: the biggest abalone – the ones that bring the big bucks – are getting harder and harder to find.

To stay in the game the divers have to travel further, dive deeper, risk more and deploy some innovative new technologies. The abalone stakes are dramatically raised when a pod of killer whales kill a Great White at the Neptune Islands. The apex predator of the region has met its match, causing the pointers to roam in unfamiliar waters. Where’s safe to dive and where’s not has become an even more chilling guessing game. Bagging abalone gold this season will be tougher than ever before.
