Diving the Brother Islands

A top Egypt dive destination, the two Brother islands are for advanced divers who have completed at least 50 dives. For those who venture to the islands, this magnificent dive area is home to dazzling coral reefs and wonderful wrecks and you can even swim alongside whitetip and hammerhead sharks. The dive conditions here are very challenging with exposed areas and strong currents, and the islands are sometimes closed to divers as in the past accidental or deliberate feeding of the sharks has led to changes in their behavior. The islands are easily reached by joining a liveaboard.
