Extreme Scuba Diving in the Dead Sea

Now it is permitted to conduct a extreme dive in the most salty waters of our planet – The Dead Sea. However only experienced divers will have opportunity to see the salty crystals with own eyes . Well such restrictions are quite obvious , as scuba diving in the Dead Sea can be a real tough experience to pass and this is mainly because such salty water have enormous buoyancy force , which means that the equipment should have a greater weight than usual and can reach up to 60 kg. Beside it the water can damage eyes in case of contact with them . But even professionals are required to pass theoretical and practical training before conducting a dive. After 2 days of diving you’ll get a certificate and be sure you boasting among your fellow divers will be quite easy thing to do
as not every diver have such opportunity to see the bottom of the Dead Sea.
Diving is allowed only on Wednesday and Thursday . Prices for these type of diving vary , but I’ve checked the official website and it says
The Dead Sea diving experience cost is US$ 1,200 per diver.
Price include:
1 night accommodation in high class hotel
3 meals – Evening, Breakfast, Lunch
Transportation from / to hotel to diving site
Supply of air tanks, full face diving masks, weights
Issue of Dead Sea Divers certificate +sticker + Polo shirt

Its not a game that dive,

its good to hear it is now permitted to scuba dive on salt water but its still not safe to dive there i want to suggest some diving sites in the Philippines where you can see different and rare kinds of marine creature…
$ 1,200 per diver is a reasonable amount when compared with the extreme fun associated with the sport. Cheers!!
looks interesting ! i dont think that its more dangerous than wrecks diving or under ice diving.
just thinking of the history of the Dead sea as a transportation path…
cant look forward…
One day…
