On my last day in Eilat, I saw that there was some rain to be expected in the late morning. I was a bit disappointed, but it motivated me to try to start the day a bit earlier. I had to take a bus to the coral beach because it was too far to walk to. I had to buy a transportation card for 5NIS and then I paid for the daily pass which was just 6.7 NIS. A one way bus ticket cost 4.2NIS, so I thought it was a great deal. I used the bus quite a lot on my last day. The daily pass even included my way to the airport. I took the bus from the center all the way to the last stop, which is the border between Israel and Egypt. Then I walked to the Coral Beach Reserve and saw several people on a platform. Since the wind was quite strong, it was the best way to get into the water. There were some brave souls in the water, so I decided to join them. I got to see lots of fish and beautiful coral. I saw a clown fish and even another lion fish. It was great! And I was so happy to do this on my last day. I went straight from the water to the airport. I wasn't able to shower before my flight, but I figured I could just do it when I got home. It was such a nice trip. It was only a couple of days, but it felt longer because I was able to jam back everything. I am also quite happy that I traveled to Israel with my "clean" passport because my security questions lasted less than 5 minutes, when I have had friends who had been questioned from 30 min to 1 hour. If I had my old passport I am sure I would've been questioned a LOT longer.
