Some days we can play in the rocks along the shore |
The view of the fishing village of Jasser a Zarka, about 45 minutes north of Sdot Yam, one of our most popular routes, round trip about one and a half hours |
This is the season of strong northerly winds, makes for interesting outings |
The wind was too strong for most of us and so after a short while we headed back |
Efrat and Motke welcomed us to their tent on the beach with a hot coffee after our windy outing |
The tent is up for the summer, all welcome to visit |
The power station still works on coal and it arrives by ship, we visit from time to time too |
Going south after the beach at Olga the coast is more interesting with lots of bays and rock gardens |
Avital likes challenging herself through the rocks |
A nice place for breakfast, its called the Chinese bay |
more rocks to play with |
Some of our paddlers can really take a break |
Then we had Independence day, another holiday good for paddling |
happy birthday Israel |
Suddenly the weather changed and gave us some small waves |
I like the name of this ship, it fits |
Interesting seas |
And of course there are the constant celebrations, birthdays are most common but weddings, and births are becoming more popular too, here we have a Fish and chips day to celebrate.... |

Everybody loves fish and chips |
Itamar got a new Greenland paddle |
