Eilat Marina is Israel’s only Red Sea yacht harbour, at the northern tip of the Gulf of Aqaba among the hotels and promenade of North Beach. It is a port of entry, and most of its berths are for smaller boats.
The water is calm and warm almost all year, so Eilat has a big day-boat scene: party and event yachts, glass-bottom boats, sunset cruises, overnight stays on a yacht, and snorkelling trips to the coral reefs. Close by are the Coral Beach Nature Reserve, Dolphin Reef and the Coral World Underwater Observatory.
