Coffee Point – Sunrises and sunsets in Eilat

All the information about Coffee Point – Sunrises and sunsets in Eilat, for the soul and for the coffee: Walk for a few moments on the concrete surface to the end of the pier. On both sides are the quiet waters of the Gulf of Eilat (the Red Sea). The two piers stretch out into the sea like the pincers of a giant crab. In fact, these piers were not meant for mooring yachts, but for the small fishing boats of fishermen. But the main purpose of the bay is to protect the opening that returns seawater from the lagoon to the sea—these are the seawater waters that are pumped into the lagoon of the yacht marina. The advantage of the place is a beautiful seating corner facing the colors of the sunrise, like a huge painting, and facing the colorful sights of the sunset. At this point you can see the sunset twice. First time, when the sun sets and changes the colors of the mountains of Edom (the Edom Mountains), shining red within them. Second sunset—overall, you just turn your face westward and from right here you see the shades of the sunset over the mountains of Eilat. And if you're stopping to enjoy this amazing view, why not savor the moment with good coffee that comes straight from the percolator? When to come: All year, but in winter it's even better. In the morning, the sunrise over the mountains of Edom reveals a rare moment before the sun rises. A beautiful halo of yellow and gold turns the mountains of Edom into look like paper cutouts with a jagged edge. Vehicle type: For a good cup of coffee in the field: fill water in a fixed kettle—up to a little before the end—then put it on the fire. Just before boiling and bubbles, add the sugar and stir. Just before the next boil, add the coffee, depending on how strong you like it. Before boiling, stir clockwise and then in the other direction. Transfer the coffee through two boils and let it rest for about a minute. Then pour into glass cups.
