About Normannia

Almost one hundred years underwater has left what's left of the Normannis as a large debris field with some very intact and recognisable ship parts left. The engine rises up about five feet, the stern is still somewhat intact and the two boilers stand together. Grouper, Jacks and a few sharks are often spotted at this spot. Large numbers of Lionfish have bee spotted here as well.

Dive Site Hazards

Hidden Depth Variations — Complex reef topography can conceal depth changes, leading to unintended profile variations.
Distraction from Marine Activity — High fish activity can distract divers and delay depth or gas awareness.
Rapid Surge Direction Changes — Surge near reef structures can reverse direction quickly, pushing divers sideways into unexpected areas.

Deceptive Entry Openings — Openings may become restrictive inside due to angle, collapse, or corrosion.

Surge-Induced Internal Silt Shift — Internal surge can move silt and debris without direct contact.

Partial Overhead Environment — Many wrecks limit direct ascent even without full penetration.

Fine Rust Particle Silt-Out — Disturbed rust particles can rapidly reduce visibility.
