More about the place

The Dor-Habonim Beach Nature Reserve stretches along about 4.5 km of coastline, between Moshav Habonim in the north and Dor Beach in the south, and this coast is considered the most cove-filled along Israel's Mediterranean shore. The red-marked trail sets out from the parking lot on the Habonim side, passes by Shell Bay, reaches the Blue Cave—a large cavern carved into the kurkar rock by the waves—and continues through the inlets of Dor Beach up to Tel Dor, the remains of an ancient port city. The trail is not circular, so you either walk it out and back or leave a car at each end. There is an entrance fee to the reserve, and the only designated swimming beach along it is the southern bay at Dor Beach.
