Beschreibung

Eilat is a major junction on the bird's migration flyway and one of the most important stop over sites for migratory birds in the world. Eilat north beach, at the head of the Red Sea, offers the opportunity for observing a range of species rarely encountered elsewhere in the West Palearctic region, such as Weißbauchtölpel and Weißaugenmöwe. Various other seabirds such as Dünnschnabelmöwe, Schmarotzerraubmöwe, Spatelraubmöwe, Gelbschnabelsturmtaucher, Dunkler Sturmtaucher, Weißwangen-Seeschwalbe, Lachseeschwalbe and Weißbart-Seeschwalbe are regular but with strong southerly winds there is the possibility of rarer birds such as Streaked Shearwater, Red-billed Tropicbird or even Lesser Frigatebird being seen from shore. It is an excellent place to see rare tubenoses and terns, which penetrate north along the Red Sea from the Indian Ocean and beyond.

At the southern end of the beach where the Sewage Canal empties into the sea Küstenreiher and a variety of waders including Wüstenregenpfeifer are regular. The canal is good for Braunliest and Asiensmaragdspint.
