Float in The Dead Sea

Floating in the Dead Sea is an experience that you just can't miss if you're traveling to Jordan

And we're driving the Dead Sea Highway to find a spot to take a dip

Welcome to the lowest point on earth, the Dead Sea. Though the name sounds fatal and it's true there are no fish swimming here

This water is rich in minerals, which are thought to have curative properties

which is why people have been coming here to float for thousands of years

You don't have to worry about a life preserver here. But don't try to swim either

Just relax and float away. Now, if you have any small cuts, you're going to feel some pain

Ladies, I recommend not shaving for a day or two before you take the plunge

The Dead Sea is about ten times. is about 10 times saltier than the ocean

and that salt will sting. But with the yin comes the yang

Even the mud here is good for you, helping with everything from arthritis to wrinkles

which is why you'll see people lathering it on and then baking a bit before heading in

If you like to enjoy your spa treatments outdoors, the Dead Sea is a good place to do it
