The area of this small country spreads from snow-covered mountains in the north to hot desert and the Red Sea in the south. The Mediterranean Sea is to the west, with its 118 mile (190 km) coastline. Despite its small area, visitors to Israel may find themselves in nine different climatic zones that miraculously influence the flora and fauna of the country. Due to this fact there are more than 60 national parks and 190 preserves in Israel. Those seeking active leisure can ski in the north while those looking for a more relaxing vacation can lie on one of Israel’s beautiful beaches. Try diving in the Red Sea or floating in the unique Dead Sea.
