Its salt concentration stands at a whopping 33.7%.
As per the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the Dead Sea water is nearly 8.9 times saltier than ocean water.
If we examine the depths of the sea, the water found is highly concentrated and hence the insoluble salt floats near the shoreline.
As of now, no visible life has been spotted in the Dead Sea like aquatic plants and animals.
