It’s not just the sunshine or the shopping—Eilat attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors every year because it’s stunning.
Why? Because there are few places in the world where such dramatic contrasts live in perfect harmony:
A turquoise sea crashes against a rugged desert. Colorful coral reefs meet dusty mountain cliffs. And wild, untouched nature exists just minutes from a vibrant, buzzing city.
In other words? Magic.
Whether you’re here to hike, float, dive, explore, or just stay in the shade—there’s a nature spot waiting to blow your mind. So, where should we begin?
We’re excited to kick things off with Eilat’s amazing coral reef! If you’re visiting Eilat, this is a place you simply can’t miss. Even if you’ve been here before, we guarantee you’ll find something new and incredible each time. The magnificent nature here bursts forth every day in a million colors and shapes, making you say, “Wow!” – but carefully, please – You’re still snorkeling here! – and make you not want this wonder to end.
You’ll meet stingrays, sea urchins, catfish, and, if you’re lucky—sea turtles.
Explore the reef via two bridges or wade into the shallows, where tiny fish and seashells await you.
Facilities: Showers, toilets, shaded picnic spots.
Tip: Even if you’ve been here 100 times, the reef still has something new to show off.
This natural, deep (but not too deep) ravine carved into blazing red rock offers a shady, stunning, and super kid-friendly day trip.
The play of light and shadow creates a thousand shades of red, making every selfie look like a movie still.
Best time: Morning or late afternoon for that cool canyon breeze.
Calling all serious hikers and wannabe mountain goats!
Challenge yourself on trails like Mount Solomon, Nahal Rahem, and Nahal Atek, where the views will steal your breath before the climb does.
You might bump into ibex, foxes, and eagles doing their thing—and let’s just say they make it look effortless.
If you’re heading to Eilat or coming back, don’t miss the chance to stop by Timna Park.

You’ve probably heard of the Pillars of Solomon, but now it’s time to see them up close—these sandstone pillars have been beautifully carved by the wind and the elements over thousands of years.
Timna Park is perfect for a leisurely bike ride or a relaxed drive, so roll down those windows!
