DetailsThe Dead Sea is the lowest point on Earth and is 9.6 times saltier than the ocean, which allows for the famous effortless floating experience. A Dead Sea Day Tour is highly recommended because it handles the complex transportation logistics from cities like Jerusalem or Tel Aviv, ensuring you get the most out of your limited time for floating, mud-bathing, and relaxing at a safe, fully equipped private beach or resort.
Bring your swimsuit, a towel, and waterproof sandals or flip-flops for the beach. Due to the high salinity, it is vital to bring a change of clothes and use the provided showers immediately after floating. Also, remember a hat, sunglasses, and high-factor sunscreen as the sun can be intense in the Judean Desert.
Yes, many popular Dead Sea Day Tours combine the relaxation stop with visits to iconic historical and natural sites. The most common combinations include a tour to Masada (an ancient fortress) for a sunrise or daytime visit, or a trip to the Ein Gedi Nature Reserve to hike through a desert oasis.
Due to the extremely high salt concentration, the water is incredibly buoyant, and traditional swimming is not recommended. Instead, visitors enjoy effortlessly floating on the surface. It’s important to avoid splashing, especially near your eyes, as the salt can cause a severe stinging sensation.
Avoid shaving just before your visit, as the salt can irritate cuts and scrapes. Do not submerge your head or ingest the water. Limit your time floating to about 20-30 minutes per session, and make sure to stay hydrated by drinking plenty of fresh water throughout your Dead Sea Day Tour.
