Two small islands in the center of the Red See is often referred to as The Brothers, or El Akhawein. These are two small islands, only a 5 minute boat ride apart, probably formed by volcanic action. The military is securing the larger Brother in a manned lighthouse. The scenery, the high likelihood of seeing sharks and many other marine life will make this a dive with fantastic experiences.

Check the tour operators whether the Big Brothers are open to divers. They are periodically closed, and a 5 USD fee has to be paid per diver per day. Hurghada has many dive operators who offer live-aboard tours to the two Brothers.
