The two Brothers Islands, El Akhawein, form a remote off-shore site East of El Quseir. The islands stand a mile apart and are subject to frequent and strong currents that are responsible for the prolific coral growth.

The wreck of the freighter Aida can be found at Big Brother, but the Brothers are best known for steep wall-dives and encounters with pelagic species like the wandering oceanic white-tipped shark.

There is little protection for vessels from the rough sea conditions that can often be experienced here. The islands are the peaks of two pillars surrounded by a narrow coastal reef, which rises up from an abyss 300 meters deep.
