Vaadas HaRabbonim Lemaan Kedushas HaShabbos, under the
auspices of gedolei Yisroel, is cautioning those
setting out on trips and excursions not to visit sites and
attractions that desecrate Shabbos.
Upholding the holiness of Shabbos applies to beaches as well.
Therefore those traveling to the Dead Sea are asked to select
beaches closed on Shabbos, the Vaadas HaRabbonim
announced.
Beaches on the Dead Sea that are open on Shabbos include
Mineral Beach, Neve Midbar Beach, Kalya Beach and Chamei Ein
Gedi, which advertises in secular newspapers that the beach
is open seven days a week.
Both the International Beach and Neve Zohar Beach (at the
Nirvana Hotel) are closed on Shabbos.
A partial list of places open on Shabbos includes the
Meimadion Water Park, the Weissgal Water Park in Rechovot,
Luna Gal, Nachshonit, the Ramat Gan Safari, the National Park
in Ramat Gan, Ganei Yehoshua, Chai Keif and Superland in
Rishon Letzion, Keif Tzuba, Beit Chalomotai, Sacheik Otah in
Emek Chefer, Etgarim at Park Lachish in Ashdod, Luna Park Tel
Aviv and Batzel Hatel Yavniel.
