A Dead Sea day tour is one of the essentials of any Israel travel itinerary. This stunning attraction is a UNESCO-listed wonder, a unique natural phenomenon found only in Israel and a once-in-a-lifetime experience. On Dead Sea day tours you are given air-conditioned transportation to and from the Dead Sea, entrance to the best Dead Sea beaches, and free time to enjoy all that the Dead Sea has to offer.
Dead Sea day tours are usually coupled with a visit to one of the nearby attractions like Masada, Ein Gedi, or Jericho. On Dead Sea day tours you have time to relax on the beach, swim and float in the water and use the convenient facilities. There are half-day and full-day tours to the Dead Sea as well as a special Dead Sea Relaxation Day Tour.
The Dead Sea is located in the Judean Desert at the lowest place on Earth, 430 meters below sea level. It is a hypersaline lake approximately 9.6 times saltier than the ocean; the high levels of salt make the waters of the Dead Sea uninhabitable to any living thing hence its name “Dead” Sea.
The Dead Sea offers visitors on a day tour the opportunity to benefit from its many natural health benefits. The sunlight at the Dead Sea has fewer harmful rays; the air is oxygen-rich and low in allergens; the water is soothing for the skin, aches, and pains, and Dead Sea mud can be used as a natural face mask!
Dead Sea water and mud literally extract toxins from the body and rejuvenate the skin. It is especially good for those who suffer from skin conditions. In fact, the Dead Sea environment has been proved to give visitors an overall feeling of well-being.
