The initiative also features desert adventures such as rappelling in the Eilat Mountains' Nahal Yehoshafat, alongside nature tours and wildlife observation in the Eilat Mountains and Arava region. For those seeking relaxation, activities include meditation and yoga by the sea, breathing workshops, and mindfulness sessions. A unique offering is a workshop combining breathing exercises with ice baths, subject to organizer guidelines and health suitability.
Food enthusiasts can enjoy pasta-making workshops, wine tastings at local bars, and culinary tours led by local food personalities. The program also includes escape games, bird-watching tours, sailing trips, horseback riding, and various creative workshops. All activities are free but require advance registration due to limited spots.
The "101 Experiences, 0 Shekels, One Eilat" project runs from November 2026 through March 2027. While the activities are free, pre-registration is mandatory, with specific dates and capacity limits for each event. The program is designed for various age groups, though specific age restrictions and conditions apply to individual activities.
