The Brothers Islands (also known as Al Akhawein) are two small islands in the Red Sea, situated from Al-Qusayr. Big Brother Island hosts a lighthouse built by British in 1883.〔 Small Brother lies in one kilometre south from the Big Brother.〔 The islands are a dive site featuring corals and two wrecks: Numidia and Aida.〔 The islands are also famed for encounters with Oceanic Whitetip and Hammerhead Sharks. However, they are only suitable for very experienced divers due to the islands' isolated position, the challenging dive conditions, and very strong currents.〔〔〔 During high season there are many dive safari boats around both islands. In 2012, CNN ranked Big Brother ninth in a list of the world's 50 best dive sites, and second in the Red Sea. == References == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Brothers, Egypt」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
