Shavit Marina (Kishon)

Set sail into Haifa Bay — the Carmel behind you, the open Mediterranean ahead.

About Shavit Marina (Kishon)

Tucked into the Kishon port area on the eastern edge of Haifa Bay, Shavit Marina is northern Israel's laid-back gateway to the Mediterranean. A few minutes past the breakwater and the city unfolds behind you: the green slopes of Mount Carmel rising over the water, the bay curving north toward Akko. It's a working, unpolished, authentically maritime corner of Haifa — and that's exactly its charm: real boats, real skippers, real sea.

With Haflaga, yacht rental in Haifa takes minutes, not phone calls. Browse the boats sailing from Shavit Marina, compare transparent prices, check instant availability and book your date in a few clicks. Whether you're planning a romantic Haifa sunset cruise, a birthday on deck or a serious morning of deep-sea fishing, a licensed skipper meets you at the dock — all you bring is the people you love and a sense of adventure.

Parking & arrival

Public parking areas serve the Kishon port zone around the marina, and arriving by car is usually straightforward on weekdays. On summer weekends and holidays the area fills up, so leave a little earlier or check a navigation app for live guidance. Give yourself a few extra minutes to find your dock — your skipper will share the exact meeting point in the app chat before you set out.
