Floating in the Dead Sea (

is one of the world's great natural experiences.
Floating is the right word for it: with an eye-stingingly high salt content it is virtually im-
possible to swim in the viscous waters of a sea that is 415m below 'sea level'. The experi-
ence is usually accompanied by a mud bath, a bake in the sun and a health-giving spa treat-
ment at one of the modern pleasure palaces lined up along the Dead Sea's shores.
