About

Kalia Beach

Come and float in the sea, spread on some natural mud, and feel as though you’re in a distant land… even though the beach is on the northernmost shore of the Dead Sea, just 25 minutes from Jerusalem.

Here, in the lowest place in the world, in the desert silence, you can feel the clods of soil between your fingers.

Breathe deeply and look at the Dead Sea almost sitting in the palm of your hand.

Look at the magnificant mountains surrounding you.

Breathe in and feel how your head is adorned with the humble yet powerful vista around you.

At Kalia Beach you will find the lowest bar in the world, the atmosphere of a distant land and excellent service.

Go down to the well-maintained beach with all the required services; changing rooms, showers, chairs, parasols and more.
