Eilat Spring Migration Festival festival, which is organized by the Israeli Ornithological Center of the SPNI and the International Birding and Research Center Eilat, offers birders the opportunity to combine the spectacle of spring migration at its best with a relaxing vacation in the warm spring sunshine of Eilat on the Red Sea.

Every spring, the skies of Israel fill with the sight of 500 million birds, migrating north from the warmer climates in Asia and Africa to Europe - a paradise for birdwatchers. Israel's unique strategic location, the only land bridge between Europe, Asia and Africa, provides the migrating birds with a large variety of habitats and the warm air currents they need for perfect soaring conditions. This makes Israel one of the most exciting and accessible regions for bird watching in the whole of the West Palearctic.

The Israel Ornithological Center, which operates three bird watching centers in Israel and aims to protect the region's biodiversity through activities with birds, has recorded more than 540 different species of birds in Israel at various seasons in the year, with over 400 occurring annually - and this despite the fact that the country is only 500 kms long.

The weeklong festival includes day and night birding tours to all the best sites in southern Israel, many bird related activities, presentations, talks and more. Guests are hosted in the Isrotel Agamim Hotel, where the opening banquet and evening activities will take place. A special Birders Pub will help birders their thirst from the long days in the field.  In addition to the free daily tours, birders can choose to participate in several specialty tours (extra charge), targeting specific species or regions of southern Israel.
