Reasons to Visit Palestine in Summer 2018: Palestine comes alive in the summer. With hot weather in the afternoon, a gentle breeze in the night, and numerous things to do all day long, there are many reasons to visit Palestine in the summer. If you are in the middle of planning how you will spend your summer months, here are reasons why choosing Palestine as your next travel destination is a good idea.
For some, the weather is a reason to come to Palestine in summer 2018. For others, it is a reason to stay away. Depending on how much you like the heat and the sunshine will depend on how you feel about the toasty summer months in Palestine. In the desert areas, it can become almost unpleasantly hot, but with bottles of water, sunglasses, sunscreen lotion, and hats to shield your face, you will be ready to take on a summer in Palestine. The dry heat is a perk to the summer climate and many of the older cities, such as the old city of Jerusalem and the old city of Hebron, are built of stone passageways that cool travelers from the heat. If you aren’t a friend of hot weather, then you can look forward to the cool temperatures that night brings. Evenings carry a fresh breeze that is sure to refresh travelers.
We know that for many, hot days in the sun are not their cup of tea. Maybe you prefer cups of sweet, black tea with mint or sage? Palestinians are known for serving tea and Arabic coffee multiple times a day and that doesn’t change in the summer. You can experience traditional Palestinian drinks and foods all-year round, but there is something special about tasting Palestine in the summer. Locally grown fruits and vegetables are produced in abundance. When the sun is beating down, these fresh fruits, vegetables, smoothies, and juices will refresh you. If you are one that enjoys food, then the food grown and prepared in Palestine will be reason enough for you to visit during the summer 2018.
Another thing that will refresh you in Palestine during the summer is the sea. The Dead Sea may be a tourist trap, but when in the West Bank, how can you pass up on a visit? Here, you can float on the surface of the sea, lather the famous dead sea mud onto your skin, and enjoy a relaxing time by the water. Cities located along the Mediterranean Sea are also reasons to visit during the summer. Jaffa, Tel Aviv, and Haifa are three popular places to go if you want to enjoy beach life on the Mediterranean.
The summer months in 2018 may reel in the tourists, but from the warm days and cool nights, to the fresh food, traditional meals, and opportunities to visit the beach, we recommend coming to Palestine in summer 2018. The area will be bustling with activities. Plus, there are some things that never change in Palestine, though the seasons do. From winter to summer, travelers can experience Palestinian hospitality and culture, as well as see some of the most famous historical sites in the world. There is no time like the present and with summer just around the corner, we welcome you to see, taste, and experience all the Palestine has to offer.
