The underwater life in Haifa • End of summer 2024

After the "mini-storm" that hit us in the last two weeks and caused a partial shutdown of access to the sea, we returned to work - straight to an underwater tour of Haifa's beaches from Dado Beach to the Pacific Coast, to bring a contemporary update of the flora and fauna at the end of summer 2024.

We are entering a period of clear water, a drop in the water temperature that has already begun, and of the appearance of life that was not seen during the summer both because of the temperatures and because of the turbidity of the water.

The photos were taken on a sandy, rocky bottom, coral reefs, artificial reefs and large and small breakwaters.

  1. Dear Muti! Thank you for such an interesting article that exposes us readers at home to the depths of the sea. The pictures of the sea creatures are simply wonderful and in such good quality! I have no words! Cheers!

    • Hello Jordan and thank you very much.
      Indeed, life in the Haifa Sea is beginning to be closer than ever to the Red Sea in terms of animals.
      Continued moss week

  2. Thanks to Motty Mendelson who brought us the underwater world of Haifa's beaches. I have a question, what is the name of the Kanon or Kernon fish (you wrote both names under his photos)?

    • Hello Anat and thank you.
      Thank you for your attention. This is a typo.
      His real name is Kernon.
      And there are many species of it, with the most beautiful of all being the peacock horn.
      Wonderful week

  3. takes advantage of the stage
    To inform all bathers at Naut beach that as of Friday 6/9/24 the sea is full of nylons of all sizes, textures and colors. For the attention of those who need to handle this

    • Hello Yaakov and thank you for the important report.
      Where did you see it on which beach?

    • Hi Shlomit.
      I'm glad it's a little encouraging in this dark time
      Shabbat Shalom and thank you very much

    • Shabbat Shalom I am.
      Thanks.
      Yes, the hornbill is a territorial and beautiful fish.
      There is Kanon Tuosi, the most beautiful of them all, who lives in Shakmona.
      Shabbat Shalom

    • Thank you very much
      This is the intention...that the residents of Haifa will see the beauty of the city.

      And go on a virtual walk in nature
      Shabbat Shalom.

    • Thank you very much Pinchas.
      This is only part of the representatives of Haifa.
      And there are many more that are hard to find every day….right now. Shabbat Shalom
