Dead Sea silence
Dead Sea silence

It might be called dead, but actually divers have found new forms of life even in the Dead Sea, the saltiest body of water on the earth.

This unique sea – at the lowest point on earth – has long been recognized for its mineral properties that give relief from chronic skin, respiratory and joint conditions.

Whatever its health benefits, it’s also a place of great beauty and mystery.
