What clothes are needed in Israel
Tourists choose their wardrobe depending on the season. It is very hot in the country in summer. The warm period lasts from mid-spring to November. If you are planning to travel to Israel in the summer, then you should take light things with short sleeves, shorts, panama and sandals with you. Sunglasses won't hurt either. During the winter season, it rains in Israel, accompanied by wind. For such weather, you should take a waterproof raincoat, raincoat, jacket and moisture-resistant shoes. A sweater is also useful in winter. Winter in Israel is much warmer than in Russia. December is very warm, and the coastal waters of the Mediterranean Sea warm up well. Therefore, in Netanya and Tel Aviv it will be possible to swim in the sea even in winter. Tourists who travel to the Merv Sea or to the resorts of the Eilat Gulf of the Red Sea can swim in any season. In this option, you need to take a swimsuit and bathing accessories with you. Foreigners in Israel are immediately burnt, as the sun is very active there. Use protective equipment to prevent sunburn.
What things are missing in Israel
Despite the fact that this state is considered high-tech, there is a shortage of goods in the field of consumer electronics. Therefore, smartphones, laptops, cameras and other equipment are more expensive there than in other countries. In stores, the choice of such products is limited. Many tourists consider the lack of goods of world famous brands of clothing, footwear and cosmetics to be a big disadvantage. As for drugs, most drugs are sold only with a doctor's prescription. Therefore, it is better to bring the necessary medicines with you.
