The Dead Sea is what’s known as an endorheic lake, which means retains water, although there are small perennial springs under and around the Dead Sea, there are no outlet streams to other bodies of water such as rivers or oceans. Because of this mineral content of the Dead Sea is very different from that of ocean water. As the Dead Sea is continually fed water from the rivers and streams coming down off the mountains that surround it when the water evaporates, it leaves behind all the dissolved minerals in the Sea. The continuing evaporation and minerals salts carried into the Sea from the local rivers is what makes the Dead Sea so salty.
This continuous build up of salt has created such extreme conditions that no living creature has ever been able to exist within hence the name “The Dead Sea”.
