Apparently how badly it smells can vary pretty widely. Last I was there it was moderate. I've read accounts online saying everything from it doesn't smell at all to saying it is absolutely terrible.

Neat place though, but not for everyone.

It varies with wind and heat, yes. Some days it's fine, others are god awful.
It depends on hydration of all the desiccated shores composed of dead sea life.

So if it rained recently, or after a foggy night, the pungent odor fills the air.
