Eilat's promenade has been adorned with 15 stunningly beautiful and colorful light installations, including flowers, dolphins, hearts, illuminated bars, and exquisite photo spots.

Fifteen dazzling light installations, resplendent in their beauty and colors, have been placed along Eilat's promenade around the marina. This initiative is a collaboration between the Eilat Municipality and the Ministry of Tourism. As the sun sets, these unique light sculptures come to life, offering a magical spectacle.

Among the notable light sculptures are the Flip-Flop Tree, the Wish Tree with a canopy reminiscent of the Eilat sun, and blue-and-white dolphins that create a dynamic, flowing experience. Illuminated flower bouquets have been "planted" in large pots along the promenade, symbolizing love and hope. There are also heart-shaped photo spots, romantic seating areas bathed in soft sunset hues, and illuminated seating and charging stations for cell phones in a variety of colors.

The colorful light installations were specially designed for the city of Eilat by international lighting artists Anat and Sivan Farag and manufactured by MK Illumination. The project was managed by the Eilat City Tourism Corporation and executed by Hali. The light sculptures are made from recycled aluminum and energy-efficient green LED lighting, designed to withstand Eilat’s hot and extreme weather conditions.

This innovative lighting project is a continuation of the "Path of Love" initiative in Eilat, where 60 illuminated elements in red and pink, featuring the word "love" and heart shapes, were placed along the "Love Road," leading from Eilat's Shahmon neighborhood directly to the beachfront. The project was selected as one of the world's ten most original illuminated projects at the annual Decorative Lighting Conference in Europe, alongside places like New York, Dubai, Sweden, Norway, and more.
