Site details

The eastern and western walls of Little Brother fall sheer and are draped in black coral and mammoth gorgonian fans amid dense hard and soft corals. Along the wall lie gorgonian forests and huge overhangs, plus a feature known as Shark Point that acts as a cleaning station for sharks. It is one of the most colourful wall dives in the offshore Red Sea.
