About this site

The southern end of Big Brother offers a generally calmer wall and plateau that drops steeply into the blue, often dived when northern currents are too strong. The reef is carpeted with hard and soft corals, gorgonian fans and anemone colonies, with grey reef sharks patrolling the drop-off. It is the classic relaxed circuit of the larger island.
