Abstract: :-Many different cross sections were created along the eastern shores of the Dead Sea (DS). These geological cross sections were used to develop a geological model of the DS area and determine the groundwater directions in the area surrounding DS. The geological model showed that the direction of the groundwater flow is to the west and northwest directions toward the Dead Sea. This model shows that the most of the geological units dip to the west and southwest directions toward the Dead Sea. In the area adjacent to the eastern shores of the Dead Sea the B2/A7 which is defined as upper aquifers were eroded and the Kurnub sand stone, Zarka and Ram sandstone group which are defined as a lower aquifers crop out.It shows that the groundwater flows from the east and northeast to the west and southwest toward the Dead Sea. At the east of the Dead Sea the upper aquifer is unsaturated because it crops out.
