(lives here on the beaches) - A windsurfer who was surfing in front of the beaches of Bat Galim, in a strong easterly wind, got into trouble after his surf broke. The east wind blows from the coast to the sea and therefore, in the event of a fault, a rapid drift to the heart of the sea (west) occurs. The surfer was in immediate danger of his life without being able to return to the safe beach. The marine police officers responded immediately and rescued him when he was exhausted and exhausted.
The police informed me here
This morning, Friday 27/1/23, the officers of the maritime policing unit of the Coast District rescued a windsurfer from Bat Galim Beach in Haifa after his surfboard broke and became detached from the sail.

Exhausted and exhausted
The maritime police officers of the Coastal District received a report of a swimmer who seemed to have drifted into the depths of the sea, near the Sea and Lakes Research Institute at the coast located in Haifa. The police quickly arrived at the scene and found a windsurfer whose surfboard he was surfing on broke in two, when he was holding on to the remaining part of it, while exhausted and exhausted.
In the meantime, the maritime police team rescued the surfer from the depths of the sea and brought him back to the shore, and he was released to his home without needing treatment.
The police once again emphasize the dangers of entering a rough or stormy sea:
- Surfing or swimming with partners while being equipped with means of communication in case of emergency.
- Updating a contact "outside the water" - for reporting when necessary.
- When life is in danger - immediate report to Moked 100 - the Israel Police's emergency hotline.
Thanks to the maritime police who work all the time to save lives. bless you
You are doing an excellent job.
Cheers to the rescuer. Shabbat Shalom
