Let yourself float
At about 340 g/L of dissolved salts, the Dead Sea’s density of about 1.24 g/mL makes it unusually buoyant. Do not try to swim; keep each immersion brief and follow posted safety guidance.

COMPLETE GUIDE What Is the Dead Sea? The Complete Guide to the World's Most Extraordinary Body of Water
At 440 meters below sea level, the Dead Sea is the lowest exposed land surface on Earth. Its brine contains about 340 g/L of dissolved salts, roughly ten times ocean salinity, and has a density of about 1.24 g/mL that makes floating unusually easy. Our most comprehensive guide to everything before you visit.

GEOLOGY Mount Sodom: A Mountain Made Entirely of Salt
Rising 250 meters above the southern Dead Sea shore, Mount Sodom is a halite diapir composed almost entirely of crystalline salt. One of the few such formations accessible to visitors anywhere on Earth.

SCIENCE Is There Life in the Dead Sea? What Science Has Found
No fish. No seaweed. Yet under certain conditions, halophilic archaea and the microalga Dunaliella emerge in concentrations visible from the shore as a reddish bloom — one of Earth's most extreme living systems.

#deadsea
The Dead Sea is the lowest point on earth, its water is extremely salty, with almost no marine life, and the high salinity makes you so buoyant that you can simply float on the surface.

Riding the cable car up to the summit of Masada never fails to impress—standing at the edge of the desert cliff, surrounded by 2,000-year-old stone, is breathtaking. 🏜️📜
Masada holds two distinct chapters of history: the magnificent engineering masterpiece built by King Herod as a desert palace complex, and later, the tragic last stand of the Jewish defenders who sought refuge here following the Roman destruction of the Second Temple in Jerusalem.
To understand this epic chapter, we look to Josephus Flavius—the 1st-century Jewish-Roman historian whose detailed writings give us a window into the Roman siege. Unpacking his historical accounts while standing directly inside the archaeological ruins brings ancient text straight into the present day.
Guiding these incredible young Maccabiah athletes to this iconic summit and exploring these deep layers of Jewish history and resilience together is why I love this work.

Desert life was honestly such a different experience. 🌵☀️
Sleeping in a tent with AC and then stepping outside straight into that crazy desert heat was something else 😂 But I actually loved it. Just being surrounded by nature, mountains, silence and these unreal landscapes felt so peaceful.
We stayed in a small gated community in the middle of the desert, which was also really interesting to experience and showed me another side of life and culture there.
Ein Gedi, the Dead Sea, the desert… so many completely different impressions in just a few days. Really happy I got to experience all of this. 🤍🇮🇱
