It is a fairly sharp descent to the Dead Sea. That black rope you see? Well it is a water pipe that is taking fresh water to the beach – so that you can wash off the salt after getting into the water. Like I said, just like a normal beach – excepting all the sand has been replaced by salt!

You see those white beaches meeting the water? Well, that is no sand beach. It is all salt!! Can’t wait to get down there!

The sheer scale is mind blowing
