Have You Heard About Sinkhole Tours?

Our tour is a little different. This journey focuses on the stunning beauty of the Dead Sea. While we’ll view sinkholes from a distance, our primary focus will be on the breathtaking salt formations created in recent years where the sea meets the shore. Expect to encounter salt cakes, salt mushrooms, stalactites, and other unique shapes just waiting for you to name them.

Tour Details:
From the meeting point, we’ll set out on a short walk through a grooved area for a few minutes until we reach the sea. Along the way, we’ll share brief explanations about the Dead Sea’s declining water levels, the formation of sinkholes (which we’ll observe from afar), the connection to the sea’s shrinking levels, and more.

We’ll pass through a massive lagoon filled with brackish water, and if we’re lucky (and we always are), we might even spot some ducks!

Upon reaching the shoreline, you’ll be greeted by an array of stunning salt formations, as well as unique natural phenomena that can only be seen here. Expect to see salt chimneys surrounded by fascinating features, various types of stalactites, and more.

Walking along the shoreline will reveal diverse landscapes and extraordinary formations. The tour lasts approximately 1.5 to 2 hours.

Starting Point and Route:
