Israel
Eilat
Eilat is also a place where visitors seem to have a great time and where children in particular seem blissfully happy.
Über Eilat
Hugely popular with Israeli families looking for a beach break and Europeans taking refuge from bone-chilling winters back home, the Red Sea resort of Eilat is brash, ugly and almost inevitably crowded, a place where being scantily clad and sunburned is the rule rather than the exception.
