Dagat na Patay

Ang Dagat na Patay o Dagat na Alat ay isang lawang nakalatag sa pagitan ng mga bansang Israel at Jordan. Sa 418 m (1,371 talampakan) sa ilalim ng antas ng dagat, ito ang pinakamababang bahaging nasa ibabaw ng mundo. Halos siyam na ulit na mas maalat ito kaysa dagat. Napakaalat ng Dagat na Patay kaya't imposible sa karamihan sa mga may buhay na umiral dito. Ito ang dahilan kung bakit ganito ang pangalan o tawag dito. Subalit, hindi naman ito lubos na patay o walang buhay dahil may ulang uri ng bakteryang nakakapamuhay sa katubigan nito. Dahil napakaalat ng tubig ng lawang ito, mas mabigat ito kaysa tubig-tabang, at madaling nakalulutang ang isang tao na may kaginhawahan. Pumupunta ang mga turista sa Dagat na Patay upang makalutang sa tubig nito.

Worth visiting ❤️ I couldn't believe it when I floated ???? !! The mud is so good for your skin, don't skip mudding ???? I highly recommend Dead Sea for short holidays (2 - 4 days) ! Stay in Mariott

Just before the northernmost checkpoint on Hwy 1, pull into the parking lot on the left, hop over the barricade on the right, walk down to the sea and a fresh water spring. Perfect spot for your dip.

The places where you can enjoy relaxing in Dead sea without paying huge amount of money are getting short... Try small not official road northside from Ein Gedi Hot Spring resort. Park and walk down.

Hard to talk about someplace that has so much history around the area. Swam/floated in the Sea on Dec. 28 and had a great time. Another bucket list place marked off.

Salt can ruin everything but a must-visit. No life & buoyancy make it safe but be careful of tides. Water shoes recommended unless you're ok with wearing communal shoes ☀️
