Nahariyya

Nahariyya (Hebrew: נַהֲרִיָּה, also transliterated Nahariya, occasionally Naharia) is a small city with a population of 50,000 in the Western Galilee in the north of Israel.

Understand
Nahariyya was founded in 1934 by German Jews fleeing Nazi oppression.

By bus
Buses run from Haifa and Akko (Nateev Express route numbers 271, 272). The Central Bus Station is not far from the railway station.

Get around
Even though the city is rather small, its sights are spread widely. So, you might want to hire a taxi depending on where you will want to go.

See
The boardwalk is quaint and well kept. Follow the main street, HaGa'aton, to the sea, and enjoy walking or bicycle riding along the board walk.
