Egypt Itineraries:

Best of Brothers

Offering divers the opportunity to really get to know this legendary site, Best of Brothers is a must for all die-hard Red Sea divers!

QUALIFICATION NEEDED: You must have a minimum of 50 logged dives to join this safari and ideally be a PADI Advanced Open Water Diver or equivalent.

Please note that no night diving or snorkelling will be allowed on this itinerary as it is within marine parks, where this is prohibited.

This itinerary provides a good mix of wreck and reef diving, with the Aida and Numidia on Big Brother and pristine coral walls surrounding both islands. Sharks and other large pelagics are regularly sighted ensuring that there is never a dull moment!

Between 3 and 4 days are spent at the Brothers in between travelling to and from.

These sites are well worth repeating throughout the week and often provide completely different experiences each time - give yourself time to really get to know Brother Islands and discover why they are so legendary!

Itinerary highlights:

Big Brother: A 400 metre long island offering fabulous wreck diving and wall diving. The wreck of the Numidia lies on the northern tip between 10 and 80 metres. The north-west side of the island houses the wreck of the Aida. On every section of this reef the wall is covered with corals and life.

Little Brother: Boasts a very high concentration of life within a very small area. Fan coral forests, overhangs, hard and soft corals in a variety of astonishing colours… and of course there are plenty of fish! With regular sightings of hammerheads, thresher sharks, grey sharks and white tip reef sharks, at the right time of year.
