Aquaduct Beach Caesaria; Israeli Beach - For the best Beaches in Israel, see my top tips and recommendations
Aquaduct Beach; My personal favorite. It is located minutes from Binyamina and Zichron Yakhov. The beach adopted its name from the ancient Roman aqueduct 1000s of years old that still runs directly through it. Be prepared as there are no bathrooms, but they do have open showers to rinse off. In the peak summer season, you can find one lone vendor selling ice cream and snacks out of a trailer.The coastline is rough with many large rocks and the swimming can be dangerous at times. There are lifeguards on duty that will not allow you to stray to far out. During most times, the water is clear and calm combined with the backdrop of the ancient Aquaduct ruins; it is a mesmerizing combination.
One of the best kept secrets in Israel. You will pay about 35 Shekels (9 U.S.D), per car, but it is more than worth it. The beach itself is part of a nature reserve. Again, this is a rocky beach like most in Israel, but you will find a nice protected lagoon perfect for swimming with younger children. There are clean showers, dressing rooms, and bathrooms, as well as a snack bar located on the site. Also a very nice picnicking area with tables. One of the main attractions is that you can hike along the rocky coast of the nature reserve where the course sand ridges and water have created inlets and caves. I have done it many times and always consider it a fresh adventure.

Here is not touristic Israel - town of Givatayim is one of the towns of "GushDan" (Great Tel Aviv area).
Givatayim is one of small towns of GushDan ("Great Tel Aviv"). With no clear border it connected to Tel Aviv at one side and to Ramat Gan at another side, in some points even meets Orthodox Bnei Brak.
I live in neighbor town of Ramat Gan and I have some students in Givatayim too. I walk by feet to my lessons, going through many of side streets.
Rami Meiri is a street muralist. Not the single one in Israel, but the most known, and probably the best one here. Most of his paintings are in Tel Aviv, but you may find them also in other places. Here is his website www.ramimeiri.com

Hamat Gader springs located in the Southern Golan near the Jordan border. In fact the Romans selected this site to build the second largest bath complex in the entire Roman Empire. Currently it is a very popular site in Israel.
The Israel Coastal Plain stretches from the Lebanese border in the north to Gaza (Aza in Hebrew) to the south, runs parallel to the Mediterranean Sea and is composed of a sandy shoreline, bordered by stretches of fertile farmland extending up to 40 km. (25 miles) inland. More than half of the countries roughly 8 million residents live in this area and it includes the countries major urban centers like Tel Aviv, as well as, a large portion of industry and agriculture. Zichron Yaakov sits almost in the center of this region at the northern edge of the Sharon (commonly referred to as the Merkaz) and at the southern edge of the Carmel Beach region (Hof Hacarmel in Hebrew.
