It depends where you go but most of the city feels pretty safe to me. If you go to the sea in the evening there might be someone there alone as well, but usuallt each mind their own business. I think it is pretty safe

Situated in the Middle Eastern region on the southeastern shore of the Mediterranean Sea, Israel is a fascinating fusion of ancient traditions and modern culture. Known as the birthplace of both Judaism and Christianity, it attracts millions of tourists every year who come to explore its religious sites like Jerusalem's Western Wall and Church of the Holy Sepulchre, Bethlehem's Manger Square, and Nazareth's Basilica of the Annunciation. But there’s more to Israel than just history; Tel Aviv flaunts vibrant nightlife, beautiful beaches, and an impressive gastronomic scene, while the Red Sea resort of Eilat offers scuba diving and other water sports. Israel is also renowned for its Dead Sea, where visitors float effortlessly due to the high salt concentration.


Israel

Eilat, located at the southernmost tip of Israel, stands majestically on the coast of the Red Sea. Known for its spectacular underwater world, the city is a paradise for divers and adventures seekers. It's home to the globally renowned Coral Beach Nature Reserve, teeming with vibrant marine life and stunning coral reefs. The city's coastal strip naturally transforms into bustling promenades lined with luxury resorts, beaches, bars, and restaurants offering a unique culinary delight, making it a perfect relaxation and entertainment destination. The city is also popular for the majestic Dolphin Reef where visitors can swim with dolphins, the Eilat Mountains for hiking, and Timna Park’s ancient rock formations, reinforcing its reputation as an attractive, year-round holiday spot. The city's warm climate even during the winter has made it a sought-after international tourist destination.

We were in Eilat for a few days at the beginning of the year and it was wonderful. We rented a car, we had a great hotel, and we even went diving in February. There were colorful deserts, hills, waterfalls, and the Dead Sea.
