We visited on a Saturday afternoon as part of a 3 bus tour group from the U.S. At least I believe this to be our stop. If so, there is a paved, handicap accessible trail almost to a beautiful waterfall. The stream along it is down a very steep ravine. A swimming area is at the base of the waterfall. People were taking advantage of it. But that wasn’t the purpose of our visit. Our large group (more or less) got off the trail to bask in the area near where 1 Samuel 24 tells us David cut a piece of King Saul’s robe off when he was relieving himself in a nearby cave. One of our accompanying pastors retold the familiar scenario to us in this beautiful, inspirational setting.

I took two Austrian friends for their first Dead-Sea visit. Kalia Beach is very close to Jerusalem - 20 min. easy drive (90 min from Tel-Aviv). free parking at the beach. entrance fee is 60 NIS/person. lockers (15 NIS) and showers are located on the top level. additional showers are also available further down towards the beach. renting a towel is also available. Top level - Nice shops of Dead-Sea products at fair prices. the Dates shop is highly recommended - free tastes and amazing dates you can only find in that region. the sea level drops every year due to evaporation, so reaching the beach requires going down ~50 stairs. The beach is wide and with plenty of chairs. slippery near the water. freshwater fountains are available in case the slat gets in your eyes... we had a great time floating on the water (amazing experience) and rubbing the special mud all over. Food - there are two restaurants - one in the lower side (near the beach) and another at the top level. we sat at the lower one - very nice - cold beers and good food overlooking the sea. we spent 3 Hr. in total - a great day !
