About this spot
عايدة offers Egyptian divers and visitors a solid year-round option in the Red Sea. The site sits near the Brothers Islands Lighthouse, a key navigation point in Egypt's dive geography. Water conditions remain consistent throughout the year, making it accessible to divers at various experience levels. The spot hosts a mix of reef and wreck features that attract marine life typical of the Red Sea. Eleven documented species observations indicate healthy biodiversity at the site. The area sits outside marine protected zones, which affects local regulations and access protocols. Community footage—three videos are available online—shows what to expect underwater. These clips offer real-world perspective on visibility, bottom composition, and fish behavior.
