Discover the mesmerizing salt islands at Dead Sea

Thanks to its high salinity, the Dead Sea is a fantastic place to unwind while floating naturally on the water, even if you can't swim. However, tourists might find it tedious if they only come here for the 'float and relax' experience. Instead, you'll have the opportunity to witness surreal landscapes and unique terrain formed from salt, such as the Salt Islands, bubble islands, salt runways, etc.

Salt Islands

It could be said that this is one of nature's marvelous creations. These round salt islands lie near shallow coastal areas, easily accessible on foot without exerting much effort. Especially on sunny days, you'll see the entire sea floor near the edge of the Salt Islands, as well as clearly observe each salt slab that constructs the foundation of the island.
