Eilat cruise port guide

Eilat is a southern Israeli port and resort town on the Red Sea, near Jordan. Its beaches are noted for their calm waters, like Dolphin Reef, where the aquatic mammals are often spotted. Known for snorkeling and diving, Coral Beach Nature Reserve has buoy-marked underwater trails among fish-filled reefs. Nearby Coral World Underwater Observatory Marine Park has a glass-enclosed observation center submerged offshore.

About Eilat

The Port of Eilat was Israel's only Red Sea port, located at the northern tip of the Gulf of Aqaba. The port permanently shut down on 20 July 2025 following a blockade by the Houthi movement that began in late 2023, eliminating nearly all shipping activity. The port had been operational since 1957.
