Fodor's Expert Review Sironit

An elevator takes you down the sandstone cliff to Netanya's main beach, which has the largest stretch of sand in the area. In addition, a paved road allows walkers and wheelchair users access almost to the shoreline, and the lifeguard stand has ultralight wheelchairs for use that can go right into the water. The beach also has two cafés and two drink kiosks with seating inside and out, as well as a parking lot just south of Ha'atzmaut Square. Fridays are filled with salsa and folk dancing. Amenities: food and drink; lifeguards; parking (fee); showers; toilets; water sports. Best for: partiers; swimming.
