Coral Beach Eilat
On a quiet, more secluded section away from the hustle and bustle of the Eilat City Center is the Coral Beach Eilat. This natural reserve is the most popular of Eilat’s beaches for diving and snorkeling. It features sandy beaches and a beautiful underwater world filled with colors, fish and an incredible coral reef of 1,200 meters in length.
If you are interested in diving or snorkeling, there are many equipment rental companies to choose from at the Coral Beach Eilat. Diving lessons and private guides to take you on an underwater tour are also easily arranged at the Coral Beach Eilat. Nearby sites offer more extreme water sports such as kite and wind surfing, while the local snack bar provides beach chairs and refreshments for those interested in a calmer sea side experience.
The Coral Beach Eilat is located near the Coral Beach Nature Reserve run by the Israel Nature and Parks Authority. There is a small entrance fee to assist with the area’s upkeep and preservation. The reserve is open from 9am until 5pm daily. From April through September the site is open until 6pm. The Coral Beach Eilat is within a ten minute drive of the Eilat City Center. It is approximately 50 kilometers north of the border crossing into Taba. A number of hotels are located across the road from the Coral Beach Eilat .
