The Israeli port of Eilat is a perfect holiday destination all year round. Whether at the height of summer or in deepest winter, "this is where the sunshine lives". The town on the Red Sea not only has sun, sea and sand to offer; it is framed by the desert. Visitors can enjoy a safari through the dunes - by car, four-wheel drive or astride a camel. Other sights include: Coral Beach Nature Reserve, Timna valley with the columns of King Solomon's temple, the red canyon with its rare rock formations, a biblical game reserve and a park where visitors can bird-watch .
