Common questions
Is Gordon Beach good for beginners?
Yes, it is the classic place to learn in Tel Aviv: soft sand, a gentle wave softened by the groynes, and surf schools renting soft boards on the beach. On a storm day it is too big for beginners as well - wait for the swell to drop.
When does Gordon work?
A small to moderate swell with an east wind, October to April. In a real swell it closes out fast and the crowd moves a few hundred metres north to Hilton, which holds size by the marina breakwater.
Where do you rent a board at Gordon?
From the surf schools on the beach, which rent boards and teach through the winter season.
Where do you park for Gordon Beach?
It is walking distance from anywhere in central Tel Aviv; park in the streets around Atarim Square or the marina car park. Showers and toilets on the beach all year.
