The Aida served Egypt's lighthouse stations, and in September 1957 heavy seas drove her against the island she was provisioning. Her stern section now hangs on Big Brother's slope from about 30 meters down toward 60, angled with the terrain so that swimming her feels like descending a staircase built by accident. Soft corals sheath the railings, glassfish smoke through the superstructure, and the surrounding wall keeps offering sharks to divers who look away from the steel. The depth does the editing here: recreational visitors get minutes at the upper works before the ascent, while trimix teams treat Aida and the deep Numidia as a paired itinerary. Skippers brief her with respect - the same weather that sank her still sets the schedule.
Le moment pour lequel vous venez: A deep, coral-sheathed hull on a dramatic slope; pairing with the island's shark traffic; a true depth-discipline dive.
Topographie: A supply vessel's hull lying bow-down on the steep slope between roughly 30 and 60 meters
Entrée: On Big Brother's northwest side; usually combined with the island wall, with strict depth and time gates.
À savoir avant de plonger
Dangers: Serious depth with short no-deco windows; current on the exposed corner; overhead sections for trained teams only.
Nitrox: Intéressant ici — les profils se situent dans la plage où le nitrox prolonge significativement le temps sans palier (avec la formation pour l'utiliser).
