Along the coastline of the dead sea and at the edges of the desert from each direction there are scattered jewish settlements, and the entire area except around Jericho, is under Israeli military rule, making you feel at times as if you are in Israel. Inside the desert itself there are nomadic tribes of Beduins. The coastline of the Dead sea and the areas around and south of Ein-Gedi are quite safe with no known hazards.
