The Aida Wreck
The Brother Islands, Egypt
Deep Wreck Reef Sharks
This 75m long Egyptian ship was build in France and launched in 1911. It sunk September 15th, 1957. Her bows at 25m and her stern at 60m.
In a big storm in september 1957 a captain decided to ignore all warnings and bring the Aida to Big Brother. Back then she was a supply ship for the Egyptian Army. The captain tried to moore her on the south east cost of Big Brother. The storm took her against the reef and she began to sink rather quickly. She looks like somebody put her down like that on purpose. If it wouldn't be for the hole from the impact with the reef she is in very good condition. A lot of corals and exposed to currents, like all of the dives at brother island.
