Achziv, Beach Resort and History
Achziv Beach is situated on the Mediterranean coast, between the Lebanese border and the Israeli city of Nahariya. It is famous today as a beach resort, but Achziv dates back to ancient times. It was a Canaanite city and part of the area belonging to the Asher tribe. The city of Achziv was for a time part of the kingdom of Solomon, but later became part of the Assyrian empire. It thrived as a port city during the Phoenician, Hellenistic, Roman, and Crusader eras.
