His name is Yitzik, he is 76 years old. He worked for 40 years as a lifeguard on the same beach [Hof HaCarmel= Carmel Beach], and is now retired. But dancing is for life...
THE SPACESHIP 2013 - AN INTERNATIONAL FREE PARTY, AUGUST 22-25, 2013
Hof HaCarmel, is the final landing site of this year's SPACESHIP - staring in JERUSALEM, continuing through TAYBEH (Palestine) - home of the only brewery there - and ending on the beach in HAIFA (Israel).
Come and join us in a historic first - a cross borders party!!!
Hof HaCarmel is one of the best beaches in Israel. Golden sands, waves breaking close to the beach, great services - free wardrobes, lifeguards, shade, and also lots of coffee shops and restaurants along the promenade.
The southern part of the beach is undeveloped, and my preferred part of the beach, goes on for a few miles, all the way to Atlit, where you find the ruins of a Crusaders' castle on windsurfing/wind gliding beach...
Also lots of interesting touring places in the area of Mt Carmel, famous as the site where the Prophet Elijah defied King Ahab and Queen Jezebel.
Today Haifa is also a unique case in the Middle East - a city of convivencia - where Jews, Muslims, Christians, Bahai live in unusual peaceful coexistence!
In the Mt Carmel national nature reserve you would find lots of hiking trails, going from the top of the mountain all the way down to the beach. Sleeping on the public beach is permitted.
There are also free setups for BBQ, showers, toilets.
You may also find in Haifa hostels and inexpensive hotels, mostly in the lower part of the city. Port Inn (hostel and small hotel)is highly recommended.
Train and bus terminals are 2 minutes walking distance from the beach, with a small shopping mall. Easy way in and out to Tel-Aviv and the Galilee.
