Dead Sea

About:

Flanked by mountains to the east and the rolling hills of Jerusalem to the west, the Dead Sea sits at the lowest point on earth. When waters reach the Dead Sea they become landlocked and evaporate, which leaves behind a dense, rich, cocktail of salts and minerals that supply industry, agriculture and medicine with some of its finest products. The Dead Sea is one of the most important tourist destinations in Jordan and attracts tens of thousands of visitors from around the world every year.

To Do List:

• Float the day away on a sea of extremely concentrated salt
• Relax and rejuvenate at a spa using natural Dead Sea products
• Visit the Baptism site on the Jordan side of the Jordan River, believed to be the baptismal site of Jesus Christ
• Check out Al Wadi Resort for some fun, lively water slides and games
• Take a walk along Ha’etakim Cliff, which spans the entire length of the Dead Sea
