Dead Sea
Float, hike, and unwind in one unforgettable desert day
Highlights
Experience the Dead Sea’s famously buoyant water and the surreal feeling of floating with almost no effort.
Wide-open views of the Jordan Rift Valley make this one of the most dramatic landscapes in the region.
The mineral-rich mud is a signature Dead Sea experience and a simple solo-friendly spa moment.
Late-day light over the water and cliffs creates one of the best photo moments of the trip.

Good to Know
3 picks
Pack for Salt Exposure
Bring a towel you do not mind getting salt-stiff, a full bottle of fresh water, sandals or water shoes, and a spare outfit sealed in a dry bag or plastic bag.
Choose Entry Type Carefully
Public beaches are usually the smart-value choice, while resort day passes cost more but may include showers, pools, and better changing facilities.
Keep Swim Time Short
Float for short sessions, avoid getting water in your eyes or mouth, and rinse off quickly after leaving the water.
