Mikhmoret is a spectacular beach, where acres of sand dunes run alongside the Mediterranean coast. Also a residential moshav (cooperative settlement), it's a calm spot to while away a day. The beach is well equipped with showers and a shack selling food. Thanks to its sea breezes, it's also popular with kite flyers.
The beach is 9km north of Netanya.
