The 100+ Experiences, 0 Shekels, One Eilat project is back, offering visitors over 100 free, diverse experiences designed to showcase Eilat in fresh ways, all without spending a shekel.

From November through March, every day from early morning to late at night, Eilat’s Tourism Corporation will host this initiative. The project provides a range of activities that illuminate Eilat in a new light, connecting visitors with local creators through authentic activities and fostering bonds between tourists and the local community. The program is suitable for all ages—adults, children, and families alike—with something for every interest.

From Culinary Adventures to Nature Lovers

Love food? Culinary tours, cooking workshops in nature, cheese-making classes, fruit sushi workshops, perfect dessert workshops, and wine tasting sessions are all part of the offerings.

For those interested in exploring their creative side, there’s an extensive array of creative workshops for all ages: woodworking for kids and teens, macramé workshops, stone and rock painting, iPhone photography, drumming, free-form dance, and more.

Nature enthusiasts or those seeking to experience Eilat’s landscapes can join tours of the Red Stone trail between Evrona and Amram Pillars, the "Eilat Awakens" tour on Mount Shlomo, the "Eilat Between Desert and Sea" lookout tour, or the "All Rivers Lead to the Sea" tour in Upper Gesheron Valley.

Looking for some sport for the soul? You can enjoy functional fitness training, yoga on the beach, sunset Pilates, holistic body-mind workouts, or just a free-form dance workshop.
