💡 Travel Tips

  • Float experience is unmissable - mineral-rich water prevents sinking
  • Apply Dead Sea mud for skin benefits before floating
  • Don't shave 24 hours before - salty water stings cuts
  • Avoid getting water in eyes - bring fresh water to rinse
  • Best time to float is morning or late afternoon to avoid midday heat
  • Combine with Mt. Nebo or Madaba mosaic visit en route from Amman
