Ein Gedi Spa

Ein Gedi spa

Ein Gedi Spa was a wellness center along the Dead Sea, Israel, fed by the waters of the Dead Sea and is now permanently closed due to sinkholes that threaten the area.[1] It provided health by the four elements of the area: water, air, sun, and mud. The spa had hot pools that are filled with sulphur water. It was previously a famous attraction on the shore of the Dead Sea.[2][3]

The spa was known for its unpleasant odor resulting from the sulphur springs. However, it still drew large crowds who believed in its health benefits.[4]

The spa was run by the Ein Gedi Kibbutz.[5]

Initially built directly along the shoreline of the Dead Sea, due to the sea's shrinkage, the spa was quite a distance from the lake due to ongoing evaporation of the Dead Sea. The Spa is closed and desolated. [6] The Spa closed March 2020. By then the seashore was 4 km away.[7]

The annual Ein Gedi Race starts off at the spa's location.
