First of all, the water temperature in the Dead Sea in December-January is +24 degrees. Even for sissies, it's warm enough to take a dip. What then to say about the Galicians.
I have already swum in the Dead Sea in Jordan, so there was no novelty effect. I wanted to grumble: "In Jordan, the water will be saltier." But he floundered in dense water already more confidently, and not just lying on his back. Well, he smeared himself with therapeutic mud from head to toe - after all, the years take their toll. It's time to sleep on the applicator and eat mumiyo under Chumak.
Swimming in the Dead Sea is an attraction that everyone should try once in a lifetime. Although some salt lakes give about the same feeling.
