    The Numidia wreck lies on the northern side of Big Brothers Island. We've seen it described as one of the most picturesque wrecks in the Red Sea. It’s certainly a photogenic site, with its bow pointing north into the blue, covered in soft corals and home to schools of fusiliers. This is a dive for advanced wreck enthusiasts.
