Dead Sea

The Dead Sea is a place not to be missed when visiting Jordan

The Dead Sea is a place not to be missed when visiting Jordan. The lowest point on Earth accessible by land, this body of water lies 418 meters below sea level. In fact, it glows a deep turquoise blue – an especially striking sight next to the salt-covered rocky outcrops and barren red mountains in the background. Dead Sea attractions can be reached in about an hour by car from Amman. The Dead Sea is famous for its mineral-rich waters, and can be reached from several entry points, including Amman Beach. Better yet, splurge on a stay at one of the luxury spa resorts on the Dead Sea's northeast coast. They often have private wading areas complete with buckets of Dead Sea mud.
