Achziv National Park
גן לאומי אכזיב
A seaside national park on the northern coast, with natural lagoons of shallow water for wading and ancient harbor ruins scattered across the lawns.
Achziv National Park lies north of Nahariya. Rocky reefs along the coast enclose several natural shallow lagoons with clear, calm water, making it ideal for family wading and snorkeling. The park has wide lawns, with the ruins of an ancient Phoenician port town and the remains of an old Arab village. Nearby is a small attraction called Achzivland, where an individual declared 'independence.' The park is crowded on summer weekends, and it has showers and a small shop. The park may close when tensions rise in the north, so check before you set out.
