The Dead Sea has a unique and distinct smell due to its high mineral content, particularly the presence of salts and organic materials. Many visitors describe it as having a slightly briny or salty odor, similar to that of seawater, but with a stronger, more pungent scent due to the concentration of minerals. Additionally, the mud and sediment at the bottom can sometimes contribute an earthy smell. Overall, while it's not overwhelmingly unpleasant, it is certainly noticeable and different from typical ocean smells.
