Accessible by boat tours from Hurghada port in Egypt, the Brother Islands, Daedalus, and Elphinstone (BDE) reefs offer divers a sensation akin to swimming in an aquarium due to their rich diversity of fish species.
In these areas, affected by strong currents, silky sharks, moray eels, pufferfish, rays, tiger snake eels, Red Sea coral groupers, and occasionally sighted napoleon wrasses are active in their search for food around the reefs.

The BDE line is among the most notable biodiversity hotspots of the Red Sea, where large and small fish species share the same habitat.
