Eilat Birding Park
פארק הצפרות אילת
A birdwatching hotspot on the migration route between Africa and Eurasia, where large flocks of storks, raptors, and flamingos appear in spring and autumn.
Eilat sits on a major bird migration corridor between Africa and Eurasia, and millions of birds pass through each spring and autumn. Eilat Birding Park lies north of the city, beside the salt marshes along the Jordanian border. It has a birding hide and walking trails where you can spot flamingos, storks, herons, and many kinds of birds of prey. The research center runs regular bird-ringing activities. Entry is free, and the spring Eilat Birding Festival draws birdwatchers from around the world. Go early in the morning and bring binoculars.
