HISTORY OF THE DEAD SEA IN JORDAN

The history of the Dead Sea traces far back to the Hellenistic Age and has featured in a number of biblical references including Noah’s Ark.
The Dead Sea played a significant role during the rule of the Romans and ancient Greeks for trade and military purposes.
Despite its commercial significance, the sea was closed to trade from 1453 until 1856 when it was reopened by the Treaty of Paris.

Today it remains a commercial hub and is a great source for local fishermen.
With snorkeling, diving and bathing activities, a holiday to the Dead Sea is also very popular with both locals and tourists alike.

 

LOCATION

The Dead Sea boasts an impressive location, bordering both Israel and Jordan.
It spans 67 kilometers long and up to 18 kilometers wide along the Jordan Rift Valley.
Both Israel and Jordan boast many beautiful beaches that line the Dead Sea.

Jordan’s beaches are located in the northeast and are close to the hotel zone.
The beaches in Jordan are far quieter than the larger resorts of Israel which make it a perfect getaway for couples.
With plenty of tourist-friendly restaurants, bars, cafes and hotels it is an ideal destination for a holiday to the Dead Sea.
