History
Although called the “Dead Sea,” this sea and the whole region on its shore is very much alive. The Dead Sea lies some 400 meters below sea level at the lowest point on the earth’s surface and is a part of the Syrian-East Africa Rift Valley, flanked by the Judean Mountains to the west and the Moab mountains to the east.
The Dead Sea is one of the most saline lakes in the world. It is fed mainly by the River Jordan in the north and by the perennial springs and streams from the east and west. Having no outlet, the Dead Sea is a “terminal lake” which loses huge amounts of water by evaporation into the hot dry air. This results in high concentrations of salts and minerals in a unique composition that is particularly rich in chloride salts of magnesium, sodium, potassium, calcium, bromine, and various others.
The uniqueness of the Dead Sea has been known for centuries. This is the only place in the world with this particular combination of exclusive spa benefits: peculiar sun radiation and climatic conditions, an enriched oxygen atmosphere, mineral-rich sea salt, thermal mineral springs, and mineral-rich mud.
