Eilat Birdwatching Park

Eilat Birdwatching Park occupies a strategic location on a major migratory route between Africa and Eurasia. Wetland and saltwater habitats near the Gulf of Aqaba provide places for birds to rest and feed during seasonal journeys.

The park is best explored quietly from its marked paths and observation areas. It is a different attraction from Eilat’s aquarium, beaches or coral reserve, even though all are connected to the region’s natural environment.

What to see

• Migrating birds at different times of year
• Wetland habitats and designated lookouts
• A chance to learn about bird migration through the Arava
