Beit Yannai beach closed due to overcrowding

Beit Yannai beach on the Mediterranean coast was closed Saturday due to heavy overcrowding, according to a report from ynet.

The closure is the latest in a series of beach closures in Israel this summer due to overcrowding. As The Zioneer reported on July 4, the parking lot at Beit Yannai National Park beach was closed for the same reason. On the same day, Susita Beach on the Sea of Galilee was also closed. The current closure affects the entire beach, not just the parking lot, according to the report.
