User reviews
"This beach is quite pleasant and easily accessible. It's about an hour's drive from Tel Aviv, but worth the trip. While there aren't many amenities, such as chairs or beds, there is some shade available. Despite the lack of facilities, the beach feels cleaner and less crowded than the beaches in Tel Aviv. Additionally, the waves are less intense."
