The Betzet and Achziv Beach ― When you drive along the coast, you come to the most beautiful stretch of coast in the country. Blue sea bays and rock crevices, kurkar ridges and rare plants, sea turtle nesting sites, the remains of the biblical city of Achziv and a bathing beach in sea pools ― all of these await you at Achziv Beach. The beach is five kilometers long, and it touches the ladder ridge that descends directly into the sea. After the Achziv strip, you come to Betzet Beach, where swimming is free, but it is best to go to Banana Beach, a well-maintained beach with a lifeguard, or to Achziv National Park, which is 5 minutes down the road.
Rosh HaNikra Nature Reserve is a unique nature reserve located at the northern end of Israel’s Mediterranean coast and is equipped with a steep cliff that descends into the Mediterranean Sea and its rugged coastline. The caves are distinguished by their unique beauty, changing colors at different times of the day and with the change of seasons. The caves appear at their best at sunset and during a storm. The length of the natural cave path is about 200 meters.
Shahaf Avraham and Tomer Swisa are friends from the north who worked together. After many years of understanding and experience, the two decided to fulfill their shared dream and opened Tosha. Tomer, who studied with Hans and Galit Bartela, with Estella and also interned in France; creates cakes and pastries that are as beautiful as they are delicious. The place is decorated in a pleasantly eclectic way, including a bar made up of bicycles that the two dismantled and rebuilt. It is located opposite the Achziv beach.
The Hanita Forest is spread over an area of more than 2,300 dunams on the slopes of the Western Galilee Mountains and at an altitude of 100-400 meters above sea level. KKL-JNF purchased the lands of Hanita, which was established in the Tower & Stockade Operation in 1938. Around the lower Hanita, KKL-JNF planted the forest, which extends from Hanita to the town of Shlomi. In the upper part of the forest stands a reconstructed model of the site of the Tower & Stockade and a parking lot that is also adapted for people with disabilities.
Another picnic parking lot is located at the lower end of the forest, near Shlomi.
