Eilat, Israel’s southern-most city, is a vacation destination for Israelis and tourists
alike. There are flights available from Ben-Gurion, but it is
a beautiful 5 or 6-hour drive. Israel Rental Cars by Avis can
get you to Eilat in the comfort of your own hired car, so you can take your time
getting there and look at the country as you go.
Known for its stunning beaches and year-round sunshine, Eilat is hot and dry.
In the summer, even Israelis will go to the hotter southern city to escape
the humidity in the central and northern parts of the country.
Surrounded by desert yet on the sea, Eilat is an amazing place to visit.
Although Eilat is known for its heat, the Red Sea is colder than the Mediterranean
and is a refreshing place to swim.
Eilat also offers the opportunity for undersea adventures. It
is known as one of the best diving spots in the world. There
are many places that offer courses in scuba-diving to allow you to see things from
a totally different point of view. The Red Sea has a huge variety
of beautiful coral, and there is no better way to see it than scuba-diving.
If scuba is not for you, there is also an Underwater Observatory that allows
you to see all of the sea life without having to take or course or even get wet.
For those of you who like hiking in the desert, the high desert mountains that surround
the city are fantastic and beautiful.
Our Eilat Car Rental Station is at the Shalom Plaza Hotel.
