Tel Aviv Gay Beach

Israel’s unofficial 'gay beach' and one of the cruisiest spots in Tel Aviv. The main gay area is north of the Hilton Tel Aviv hotel, right off Independence Park, opposite the eagle statue on the top of the cliff.

Hilton Beach is a great place to meet the locals and learn about the gay scene of Israel. Lively and fun atmosphere, so prepare to cruise and be cruised.

The beach gets very crowded, especially at weekends. During Pride week, it can be standing room only.

Frishman Beach isn't as famous as the popular Hilton Beach, but it does attract a somewhat younger crowd. You'll find plenty of tourists here and a welcoming crowd. It is a family friendly beach so may not be suited to all, but you'll certainly see plenty of eye candy here.

The beach is also popular amongst locals and has an outdoor gym as well as several beach volleyball courts. It's also great for paddling as the water is relatively shallow and calm. There are also plenty of restaurants and cafes nearby and you'll be able to spend the whole day here easily if you so wish.
