Eilat is a thriving, coastal city situated at the mouth of the Reed Sea (Yes, it is actually the Reed Sea that was erroneously called the Red Sea through a typo). This is a vacation destination for French, German, British, and Israeli tourists. The boardwalk is bustling every night with vendors, strolling visitors, music, and lots of junk for sale--the same stuff you can find anywhere in the world--carved sea shells, baseball caps, inexpensive sun glasses, etc. The fast food vendors have an Israeli flair--crepes with Nutella, roasted corn on the cob, gelato--wait a minute, Israeli? This is truly an international resort destination.
