Simply the Best

The Simply the Best route will give you the opportunity to dive the best top 3 sites in the south of Egypt. Departing from Marsa Ghalib in Marsa Alam you will dive the Big and Little and Elphinstone Reef. The Brother Islands are the pinnacles of two undersea mountains rising from the depths of the abyss and are located about 60 miles offshore. Part of the Marine Park Islands National Park, these islands offer stunning wall diving, with the walls being covered in soft corals and forests of gorgonians, creating a kaleidoscope of ever-changing colours. They attract a diverse array of marine species and including pelagics. Large tuna, jacks and snappers cruise in the blue, accompanied by occasional hammerheads, silvertips, silky and oceanic white tip sharks and mantas. Even the rare thresher shark can be found here. Sightings of the grey reef shark are almost guaranteed on the North and South Plateau of Small Brother.

For the wreck diver, the wrecks of the Aida II, an Egyptian supply vessel, and the Numidia, a cargo ship, lie on the walls of the Big Brother. Both are covered in a rich growth of soft and hard corals. Marine life includes a family of napoleon wrasse and grey reef sharks.

Daedalus Reef is also part of the Marine Park. This large and oval reef with a lighthouse is the furthest offshore reef in the Egyptian Red Sea. Its deep walls and drop-offs offer some of the most spectacular diving to be found.

Elphinstone has sheer walls covered in soft corals and offers a likely encounter with oceanic white tip sharks.

Note:

Minimum of 50 logged dives requested and no night dives permitted in the Marine Park area by Egyptian Law. These are challenging dives with strong currents, so not for inexperienced divers. Long overnight travel is required.
