Brothers Islands

These islands are located about 150 km from Port Ghalib (Marsa Alam) and are classified as a national park. The distance between Big and Little Brother is about 1 km. Their location, exposed to the currents, is a meeting point for large pelagics that come up from the depths, as well as sharks.

Big Brother is home to 2 wrecks: Numedia in the north and Aida in the northwest of the island. Both are directly on the reef, well preserved, covered with coral and accessible under current depth limits.

Daedalus reef

It is about 200 km south of the Brothers Islands. Classified as a national park, this vast reef impresses with its large falls, its great variety of corals and colors as well as its diversity of marine species. Often exposed to strong currents, drift dives are favoured. They allow to appreciate the spectacular falls, while observing the great blue and its occupants.

Elphinstone reef

It is certainly the most famous in the south of the Red Sea. Located about 20 km from Port Ghalib (Marsa Alam), the reef is extended in its northern and southern parts by 2 plateaus that descend by stairs to 60 m. The west and east sides are magnificent falls. In general, Elphinstone Reef is exposed to strong currents and surprises are common!
