Dead
Sea:
A go-to summer destination, and for all the
right reasons. Less than an hour away from Amman, the
Dead Sea is the perfect
day-trip for those looking to bask in the sunshine without spending the night.
Take your pick of different hotels, each with a pool and private access to the
salt lake.

Wadi
Mujib:
Combine exercise and leisure by going to
Wadi Mujib — a river canyon hiking trail famous for its waterfalls and natural
waterslides. You can opt to have a tour guide accompany you along the 2 to 3
hour trail, which often gets deep enough for swimming.

B12
Beach — Ayla Oasis:
The artificial sandy beach at Ayla’s B12 Beach
Club is a sure way to reinvent the Aqaba experience. Visit this picturesque
spot and unwind with refreshing drinks, good food, clear waters, and — for
those looking for that adrenaline rush — watersports.

Wadi
Rum camps:
Take a dip in a pool against a desert
backdrop. At some Wadi Rum camps, like Al-Sultana Luxury Camp, Palmera Camp, or
Beit Ali Lodge Camp, you can momentarily escape the searing heat of the desert
by going for a swim. Surrounded by the dryness of the desert, the pools stand
out like an oasis, making for a unique swimming experience.

Springs is any nature-lover’s summer dream. To complement the natural
landscape, the resort also has a pool, spa, and sauna where you can spend the
day relaxing.
