Latest reviews on Zichron Ya'akov's beaches

Neve Yam beach
8 Lena Kostić

This particular beach is one of the two available for camping in the vicinity, which means that it can get quite crowded on weekends. However, there is enough space for everyone to find their own spot. The beach offers ample parking, although it may be necessary to park up to 50 meters away from the shore. While there are often lively parties happening in the area, it is still possible to find a peaceful and quiet place to relax. It is important to note that the water levels can rise in the morning, so it's best to avoid pitching a tent too close to the water's edge.

Gedor Sea beach

This beach is truly secluded and stunning, but we kindly request that those who do not prioritize cleanliness refrain from visiting. Thank you.

Cochav Hayam
10 Zane Mercer

We had our wedding here and we couldn't have been happier with everything. Before we started planning our wedding, we had heard a lot of negative things about the wedding industry in Israel. However, our experience with Cochav Hayam's finance, admin, decorator, bar, and catering was incredibly positive and efficient. This venue is like a well-oiled machine when it comes to weddings. They leave nothing to chance and are true professionals. They make sure that all your needs are met and they are fair, straightforward, and most importantly, honest. Our event manager, Sapir, was extremely organized on the day of the wedding. She took charge of everything including the schedule, Rabbi, DJ, caterer, and guests. She knew where everyone was throughout the entire event and was always available to us before, during, and after the wedding. If you're looking for a classy, honest, professional, and beautiful place to tie the knot, this is the perfect venue for you.

Caesarea beach
10 Ethan Davis

This lovely beach is a peaceful retreat, free from commercialization and perfect for relaxation. While the wind can be strong, the waves make swimming questionable. However, it's worth noting that the beach boasts an ancient Roman aqueduct that provides some shade on hot days. A large parking area is available nearby, but early birds are more likely to snag a free spot.

Dor beach
