I mainly want to snorkel/look for old coins. I don’t think a metal detector will work, but a small mesh screen or colander should do the trick.

The problem would be floating, but I could wear weights.

I wonder how coins submerged in heavy saltwater will fare? I’m guessing lots of pitting. Can’t wait to find out.

going to Isreal would of course be a major treat but going to the dead sea would be the highlight of the trip.I really want to swim in the dead sea. I can’t float. Everything can float in the dead sea with such high sodium levels. I really hope i get the oppertunity to float.

Use the beaches run by local Kibbutzim. They’re much calmer, and less overrun with tourists!

The Yam HaMelech is Sababa! Whatever you do DO NOTGETYOUREYESWET!!!! I repeat, DO NOTGETYOUREYESWET!!! This will burn and blind you until you RINSE, RINSERINSE!!!, the salt and minerals out of your eyes. Also, DO NOTFLOAT TO JORDAN!!! DO NOTFLOAT TO THEWESTBANK!!! You will probably be VERRRRY, VERRRRY shriveled, in A LOT of PAIN, and VERRRYVERRRYSORRRY that you wound up there. Believe me.
