The Pan-African Ocean is an hypothesized paleo-ocean that surrounded the supercontinent of Pannotia. The ocean may have existed before the break-up of a supercontinent of Rodinia. The ocean closed before the beginning of the Phanerozoic Eon, when the Panthalassa ocean expanded, and was eventually replaced by it.
