On board of the boat Hurghada / Brother Island / Hurghada Your diving program starts from Hurghada Then you move to Abu Ramada There's many dives to do around this island. More specific, a drift dive around the steep eastern wall with big fan corals and swim-troughs, a drift dive north of the island, heading east to the drop off at 25m, where you'll find a big cave, having a chimney up to 25m. Further more you can dive on the eastern end where you'll find some ergs with a lot of life, a small wreck at 5m, napoleon fishes, sweet lips, squid, rays, giant morays,... Moving to The Brothers Islands that are situated 67 km offshore east of El Quseir and south East of Safaga. The smaller island covers an area of 0.1 square km, while the other one covers 0.3 square km. A great situation to meet pelagic and big fishes! The dive sites are mostly wall dives and strong drop offs. Big Brother has on the North west side some ship wrecks. The Aida II an Italian ship which was carrying troops one night in 1957 when it hit Big Brother. A large wreck with much intact superstructure, its shallowest point is at 15 m. and ends below 45m. There are other older wrecks scattered at depths between 9 and 40 meters including the Numidia. The little brothers; this site, the smaller companion of Big Brother, is inferior in size only. The soft coral growth here is so unbelievably rich that the upper 30m (100ft) or so looks like a psychedelic crocheted cap over the reef. Like Big Brother, this site attracts numerous sharks, including gray reefs, white tip reefs, hammerheads, tigers, and even the ominous oceanic white tip. Even majestic whale sharks are always a tantalizing possibility When your boat moves to Abu Kafan Small finger-shaped reef with lots of soft corals. There is a steep wall to at least 100m you might see while diving in this area a hammerhead also you will find large moray eel in hole and a barracuda (> 1 m) at 40 cm distance. Reaching to Middle Reef; in this area the colorful cascades compete for your attention with sharks, sea turtles and other wonders. You may even find yourself swimming among wild dolphins. Panorama Reef; it lies in the south of Safaga. Like Abu Kafan you might see there a Hammerhead. A circular reef just touching the surface. You might see a turtle and a small Napoleon wrasse. After the dive you may see also wild dolphins. Then your boat will return back again to Hurghada. |
