Welcome to the Dead Sea Revival Project, an NGO dedicated to sharing the story of the Dead Sea with the world and influencing public opinion to support our vision of restoring the historic water sources of the Dead Sea, including the Sea of Galilee and the Jordan River.

About the Dead Sea
Measuring at 430 meters below sea level, it is the lowest point on Earth, and is one of the deepest lakes in the world (480 meters / 1580 feet).
It is the 4th saltiest body of water on earth that contains 26 minerals with half of them exclusively unique to the Dead Sea! The Dead Sea Basin is shared between Israel, Jordan and the Palestinian Authority.
About the Dead Sea
The Dead Sea is an extraordinary natural wonder, measuring at 430 meters below sea level, making it the lowest point on Earth.
It is one of the deepest lakes globally, with a depth of 480 meters (1580 feet). What makes the Dead Sea truly unique is its incredible saltiness, ranking as the fourth saltiest body of water on earth.
It contains 26 minerals, half of which are only found in the Dead Sea. In the shared territory of Israel, Jordan, and the Palestinian Authority, the Dead Sea basin is a vital and precious natural resource.
The Dead Sea’s Water Levels are the Lowest in Recorded History!
Why is the Dead Sea shrinking?
The Disappearing Dead Sea: Unfortunately, the Dead Sea is facing a critical issue—the shrinking of its water levels.
The historical flow of the Jordan River and the Sea of Galilee, which were once the primary water sources for the Dead Sea, has significantly decreased due to drying up and diversions.
Additionally, the industries and factories in both Israel and Jordan extract large quantities of water, further contributing to the shrinking of the sea. As a result, the Dead Sea is losing water rapidly, with the equivalent of 600 Olympic water pools (1.5 million cubic meters) being lost daily. Each year, the water level drops up to 1.5 meters (5 feet).

- Every year, the water level drops up to 1.5 meters (5 feet)
- There is almost no access to the remaining Dead Sea shores today due to the rapid growth of sinkholes phenomena, up to 6,000 in total, 700 per year
