Hidden Honeymoon Gems - Dead Sea, Jordan

  • 13 years ago
Hidden Honeymoon Gems - Dead Sea, Jordan - part of the weddings video series by GeoBeats.

The Dead Sea - not on many honeymooners' list and that is exactly why you should consider it.

With over 1300 feet below sea level, it is the lowest point on the earth's surface.

It is also one of the saltiest places, with a composition of 35% salinity.

This sometimes creates fascinating and bizarre crystalline formations around the Dead Sea's shoreline.

The salinity of the lake is so high that very few plants or animals can survive.

About the only things living in the Dead Sea are the human tourists who come here.

It's an idyllic place to relax, with white beaches and bright blue water.
