The Dead Sea Bordering Jordan to the east and Israel to the west, the Dead Sea is a spectacular natural wonder situated at the lowest point on dry land, sitting over 430 meters below sea level. Its hypersaline water is nearly ten times saltier than the ocean, creating a unique phenomenon where swimmers float effortlessly on the surface, unable to sink.
Famous as the world’s first natural spa, the sea’s mineral-rich black mud is renowned for its therapeutic and cosmetic properties, attracting wellness seekers for thousands of years, including historical figures like Cleopatra. Visitors can cover themselves in the healing mud, float in the cobalt-blue waters, and admire the glistening salt crystals lining the shore against the dramatic backdrop of the Jordan Rift Valley.
