It depends on why you are going there, to settle or for sightseeing. Negev is home to 8% of the Israeli population. For sightseeing, it is a beautiful sight to behold. If you have never been to a desert before, you will find the landscape very fascinating. It has a very unique geographical formation: makhteshim, unique crater-like landforms that you won't find anywhere else in Israel. A jeep tour with an experienced driver who understands the terrain would surely be an unforgettable experience. The dead sea, fortress of Masada and Eiv Avdat are all located in the Negev desert.
