About Brown Pants

This dive site is located on the Southern side of Norman Island. The area consists of a number of beautiful sharp cliff faces which descend down into the water. The reasoning for the name is apparently due to the fact that when the site was first being explored the first two divers exploring the area were unexpectedly chased back to the boat by some bull sharks. The dive site itself consists of a pinnacle type feature which extends up from the sea floor. The visibility in the area is generally very good as is the marine life and coral / sponge growth.
