Is there a dress code in Dead Sea?

For men - short to the knee or below are fine.... Ladies - calf length Bermuda type pants are fine. Jeans and T shirts are absolutely fine for both. At resort hotels in the Dead Sea and Tala Bay for example - the dress code is more relaxed - as are some areas of West Amman.

Flip flops and/or water shoes — while you can wear flip flops to a Dead Sea beach, as you get closer to the edge of the water, you'll find that there's lots of sharp rocks. You will also start to see some salt crystals as you get closer to the water, so make sure to change into water shoes once you get in.

Try not to put your face or hair in the water It's just not a good idea to get your eyes and mouth near the water, because if any were to get in, that would be the end of your time at the Dead Sea. In addition, you will want to pull your hair up and avoid getting it in the water.

Only float in the Dead Sea 10-15 minutes
Don't stay in the Dead Sea longer than 10-15 minutes. The salt water irritates your skin, and after 15 minutes it can start to sting. Remember that the Dead Sea is about 10 times saltier than typical oceans and seas. On that note – Don't splash!
