It is the saltiest body of water on Earth, with a salinity of about 30 percent. This is about 8.6 times greater than average ocean salinity. It measures 67 km (42 miles) long, 18 km (11 miles) wide at its widest point, and is located on the border between the West Bank, Israel, and Jordan, and lies in the Jordan Rift Valley.
