Eilat
Eilat is Israel's southernmost city, a busy port and popular resort at the northern tip of the Red Sea, on what is known as the Gulf of Eilat in Israel and the Gulf of Aqaba in Jordan. This city is located at the southern end of the Arabah, near the Egyptian resort city of Taba to the south, the Jordanian port city of Aqaba to the east, and Haql, Saudi Arabia, across the gulf to the southeast. The proximity of a warm sea helps to temper Eilat's arid desert climate and low humidity.
The calm waters of Israel's southernmost resort town on the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aqaba are world-renowned. At Dolphin Reef, you can see incredible views of aquatic mammals and join tourists from all over the world who come to Eilat to snorkel, dive, and enjoy warm sunny winters and tax-free shopping. At quaint market stalls dotted throughout Eilat, you'll find everything from artisanal chocolate to intricate blown glass. It's also one of the most appealing foodie destinations on the coast. Eilat's lodging options include hotels, villas, apartments, and holiday homes.
