Whether it is above water as a swimmer, wind surfer, water-skier or sailor
or under-water as a diver or snorkeller, Eilat’s sporting life is
dominated by the presence of the wonderful coral lined crystal waters
of the Red Sea Gulf.
Plunge into a new reality and discover the magic of Eilat’s underwater
life. Eilat’s coral reefs, famous for their rich variety and striking
beauty attract both experienced diving professionals and the novice. Equipment
and facilities are available at many beaches with great activities for
all ages and all levels.
Rise above it all and try one of the many sky sports Eilat has to offer.
Parasailing, a hybrid of sailing and parachuting, is the choice for you
if a smooth glide over the sea is what you have in mind. Experience this
effortless yet unforgettable sport and get a bird’s eye view of
the gulf. The Airudium, a vertical wind tunnel is the closest you will
ever get to flying. Suitable for practically everyone, all you need to
get started is 30 minutes of pre-training and a flying suit. If you are
seeking the ultimate thrill then Skydiving is the answer. Start with a
45 second free fall from 12000 feet. Once the parachute opens, relax and
enjoy the ride and breathtaking views of Eilat, Jordan, Sinai, and the
surrounding areas. Definitely not advisable for the faint hearted.
Interested in combining exercise and touring? How about experiencing
Eilat’s unique desert landscape and nature life? You are guaranteed
an unforgettable experience. Jeep tours of the desert hills are a great
way to sample this magnificent and unique terrain. 4WD scooters are an
adventurous choice of exploring the desert. You can also spend the day
combining hiking treks and camel riding through the desert.
Eilat's night scene keeps on the spirit of the lively, unrestrained fun
that dominates the beaches, and practically anywhere else during the day.
It seems as if the sunbathers stay on the beach until the sun goes down,
and then after a good meal head straight to the bars and discos. Most
of the nightlife spots are located around the North Beach area, along
the hotels’ promenade though some can be found in the town centre.
Beside the pubs and the nightclubs, the Eilat beaches serve as a lively
location for open air bars and parties weather permitting. Many of the
hotels provide entertainment at night for their guests, and Eilat certainly
has plenty of night activities for all age groups.
