Dive in the Red Sea
Coral Beach in Eilat is often ranked as one of the best places to dive in the world. The reefs are protected by the National Parks Authority in Israel and are popular with both locals and tourists. There are also sun loungers and umbrellas on offer so that you can also relax and work on that tan in between your dives. Whether you wish to explore the depths or just swim along the surface, Eilat is the perfect place to be.
Swim with Dolphins
Home to a dolphin population living completely in its natural habitat is Eilat’s Dolphin Reef beach. Here, you can get up close with these stunning creatures and for approximately $84, you can swim with them for 30 minutes. Swimming with Eilat’s dolphins is one of the main attractions in the city and should not be missed.
