About this spot
Extreme School, one of Israel's oldest and largest kitesurfing schools, runs courses at Beit Yanai and describes it as one of the country's most popular kite beaches, with excellent learning conditions and a lively community. Students receive IKO certification.
The beach is north of Netanya on the open Mediterranean; expect chop and waves on stronger days. The wind sector isn't published by the school, so the directions shown are an estimate for this west-facing coast.
Check current travel advisories before planning a trip.
