11/01/2026 – Public Update – Hami Zohar Separate Beach

Construction work has begun on the separate beach in Hami Zohar, in which new changing rooms will be built for the benefit of the visiting public.

It is important to emphasize that the existing changing rooms are open for use, and the separate beach will continue to operate as usual throughout the construction period.

We thank the public for their patience and wish you a pleasant visit.

***************

In the center of the coastal strip of Hamei Zohar, you will find high terraces that blend into the natural surroundings. The spot is inconspicuous and unobtrusive, and enables completely separate bathing of men and women.

The beach is well maintained and accessible and includes chairs, umbrellas, drinking-fountains, showers, toilets, changing rooms and, of course, regulated lifeguard services.

The religious and traditional audience greatly appreciates the services of the segregated beach and enjoys it all year round, except on Saturdays and Holidays.
