Surrounded by vast deserts, the Red Sea expands 1300 miles from the north, the Gulf of Aqaba, to Bab el Mandeb in the south. Coral reefs are the main reason for diving the Red Sea and the best way to do it is off a live-aboard. Majority of the boats depart from Hurghada. One of the most well known sites along the Southern route is The Brothers, or El Akhawein, two small islands in the middle of the Red Sea. Big Brother and Little Brother are a 5 minute boat ride apart. The larger Brother is home to a lighthouse manned by the military. Often surrounded by wild currents, the scenery makes for some wonderful dives. Add to this the high likelihood of seeing sharks and you’re guaranteed fantastic experiences.
