The archipelago itself is a chain of six volcanic islands, the "seventh brother" is not an island, but a volcanic hill at the northern tip of Ras Siyyan. Situated near the strait of Bab El-Mandab, just south of the entrance to the Red Sea, these uninhabited islands are connected by a stunning reef system. You will find a combination of amazing drop-offs and untouched soft and hard corals, Pelagic species (giant jack fish, manta rays, mobulas, snapper, and many more, are found in large numbers and in sizes bigger than normal, as well as lots of schooling fish. Laying between Ras Siyyan peninsula and the six islands is the wreck of the White Lady. This unknown ship has yet to reveal all of its secrets and is covered with a deep layer of white flora, habited by many fish species. This dive will definitely please photographers and wreck lovers.
