Brothers Island

Here in the Red Sea two mountain tops have emerged from the sea. They have become famous as aquatic siblings, going by the name of Brothers Islands. They are als called ‘ El Akhawein’ in Egyptian parlance.

The Brothers are a pair of tiny Islands: actually they are the exposed tips of two massive reef pillars that rise from the abyssal depth. Good chance to see sharks.
A - Big Brother: The larger of the two, is easily identified by its Victorian stone lighthouse, a legacy British rule. Many dive locations possible.
B – Small Brother: Small Brother is inferior in size only. Like Big Brother, this site attracts numerous sharks, including grey reefs, hammerheads, tigers and even the ominous oceanic white tip.
