Not only the lowest spot on earth, but also the saltiest and most mineral-laden body of water in the world, the Dead Sea, which joins Israel and Jordan, is legendary as a source of healing, and has become a popular center for health, rehabilitation and beauty treatments.

I really enjoyed this experience and recommend it to anyone. It's hard to stand up straight in the water without being forced on your back or front. The water was cool amd refreshing. And you don't really need sun screen as the UV rays don't have the same effect on you given that you are 429 metres below sea level. However, you need to know a few things. One, that the sea level as changed drastically over the last 30 years so you will need to go down over 100+ steps to reach the current shoreline. I didn't see any accessible facilities so do your due diligence and check all beach resort areas for accessibility. The shoreline has dropped 40 metres since the 1950s. Two, that there is no real beach per say, only low muddy/hard sandy areas where you can enter the water. The shoreline sand/mud is super hot so wear coral booties or flip flops as you will also need them when you wade in the water to protect your feet from small areas of sharp pebbles found here and there in the water. And three, when you slather on the rich Dead Sea mud onto your body, make sure that you completely wash it off. It gets everywhere and does stain clothing if still lingering in your beard or hair. And above all, make sure to keep your mouth closed and keep water from your eyes. It burns like hell.

This is our first visit here in 20 years, and we weren't disappointed. There is a "hanging path" over the stream, the roar of the water is deafening yet very soothing, and the views of the stream and the waterfall are stunning. The water is actually blue, and so clear you can see the fish swimming in the rapids. Paths are well marked and safe. While covid-19 restrictions persist, you need to book on the website. Well worth the visit.

Beautiful to look at, but a cruise on a "Jesus Boat" makes for a moving and memorable journey. Look up while on the Sea of Galilee to the imposing Mount Arbel. Life focuses on the sea, its history and the abundant food is provides, such as the St. Peter's Fish. Learn more about the unique geological and weather conditions that can turn this tranquil body of water into a raging sea. Such a treat to experience this Biblically historical Sea of Galilee!

As a port of entry, the Jaffa port has seen better days - many of them. This is rumoured to be the oldest functioning port in the world.

The old Jaffa port is a great place to wander around on a warm, sunny day. many of the streets have been nicely restored. There are lots of crowds and an energetic atmosphere.

You can't get any more water on your water hike than t Majrasa: The stream *is* the trail. You wade/swim through the beautiful Majrasa/Daiyot stream. It starts off as a narrow shaded wading stream and widens out into lovely wide open pools perfect for swimming. Bring a lunch and relax afterwards at one of the many tables in the shady olive tree groves along the banks.

Just across the main road. A great place to hike at all times. Easy walk, no need for maps or too much equipment. Take a hat, water, shoes that you can Walk comfortably with (including in the water), shorts that you can “shower“ with... that’s about it. You can reach from a parking lot near the entrance or walk beneath the bridge near the hotels. 1.5-2 hours will do. Great for all ages!
