  • The dolphin's reef is one of Eilat most known attracions.
    Here you can see the dolphins on their "nature-like" home , not in cages or aquariums.

    You can also swim and dive with the dolphins.

    Entrance to the reef will cost an adult something like 50 nis but if you want to dive or swim with the dolphins it will cost you more (230nis for diving).

    You can also learn to dive here or get your pictures taken under the water.

    Underwater Observatory Marin Park: Underwater Observatory Marine Park

  • The underwater observatory marine park is a beautiful place , where you can see the nature of the coral world in Eilat , see the fish , sharks and more.
    There are many beautiful things to see.

    The oceanarium is a marine simulator .

    Entrance to the place will cost 80 nis for the park and 15 nis more to the oceanarium.
    To my opinion the oceanarium is not a must see so don't waste your time.

    If you have a car , there is a big parking lot here , but you can also come with a taxi and it will cost 20-25 nis or with bus no. 15.

  • On Timna Natural Park you will see some beautiful sights - one of the called Amudey Shlomo - Solomon's Pillars.
