The Coastal Plain in Israel stretches from the Carmel Range in the north, to Gaza and Egypt in the south. At its center is the sprawling Tel Aviv metropolitan area.

Overview

The Sharon is the part of the coastal plain located north of Tel Aviv. It is famous for its orange groves, some of which are now being replaced by new housing developments.

The Southern Coastal Plain, as its name indicates, has less of an identity. It is mostly known for its cities - Ashdod and Ashkelon.

Cities
Sights

Almost all of the Sharon has publicly accessible beaches. But as usual, don't swim without a lifeguard. The swimming season is usually between June and September, and lifeguards are only available during this season.
