Juha's Guesthouse Zarqa Bay | Backpackers Hostel

ABOUT US

Juha’s Guesthouse is the first guesthouse in Jisr az-Zarqa, the only Arab village on the coast of the Mediterranean sea in Israel. We are located in the heart of the village. Once here, a short walk will bring you to a beautiful sandy beach where you have the opportunity to experience the authentic atmosphere of an ancient Arab fishermen’s village. You can also take a 30 minute walk on the famous “Israel Trail” to one of the most popular tourist sites in Israel, Caesarea, or visit the “Crocodile Stream Nature Reserve” a 10 minute walk from Juha’s. Hiking trails, water sports, cooking workshops, take your pick!

OUR VISION
