Activities in Tiberias

Bicycles
As long as you can deal with the heat, getting around Tiberias and the lake by bicycle is ideal. The road by the lake shore is relatively hill-free and many of the sites are close together. Most cyclists do the lake circuit, which can be done in four or five steady hours. Start early (around 07:00) to beat the heat and take plenty of water because there is little shade along the road.

Gai Beach Water Park
For a real splash, spend the day at the Gai Beach Water Park which has giant water slides, including the terrifying kamikaze slide (on a 70° angle), and wave-machine-rippled pools. The water park is 1km south of the town centre. Walk or take bus No 5-Aleph (A) from the bus station.
