In Oct 2009, my wife and I visited Jordan and stayed at a resort/spa on the Dead Sea. Do not make the mistake that this look like a normal lake or an ocean beach. Be careful of the the entry into the water, the shore is covered with salt encrusted rocks.
The next next warning is do not submerge your face into the water. The salt water will burn your eyes and sinus. If you or someone one you are near does this, they will need to get out of the water immediately to flush their eyes and sinuses. It is best if there is a fresh water shower nearby.
The immersion of your head in the water will cause you much pain in your eyes and will flood your sinus cavities with brine. The result is not being able to see when your eyes are open and your sinus will fill with mucus trying to get rid of the salt water. My symptoms of congested sinus lasted about 3 hours.
Once properly flushed the red eyes will disappear and the sinus will continue their healing process of draining mucus normally requiring you to blow your nose often like you have a cold.
You will not make the same mistake twice.
