About Gordon Beach
Gordon Beach, in the centre of the shore by the Marina and Gordon Pool, is one of the four Tel Aviv beaches with lifeguards outside the summer season, the city’s tourism office notes. The official bathing season runs from early May to October, when lifeguards are on duty for most of the day; swim only where they are on duty and the flag allows.
Opening hours, prices and seasonal openings change, so please check with Gordon Beach before you go.
