1991-1992 Rothberg Yearbook

One treasure God has given Israel (since we lack diamonds and oil) is its seas: the
Mediterranean with its white sandy beaches, the Red Sea with its coral reefs, the "Sea of
Galilea" with high winds and fresh water, and the Dead Sea, the lowest point on earth. This
vast variety creates an ideal background for water sports. Indeed, Israel is famous for worldclass
diving, and Israeli sailors are ranked among the best in the world. The temperature
of the Mediterranean Sea in winter is about the same as the Pacific Ocean of Southern
California in summer. All year long one can learn and enjoy sailing, windsurfing, diving, or
surfing in clubs from Ashkelon to Naharia. The Red Sea has the best diving in the world;
add to that the superb climate, and you have a perfect resort. One can lay on the beach,
snorkel or learn scuba diving in the best atmosphere. For more "wet" action, you can try
rafting along the Jordan River or kayaking on its streams, or just splash in the wonderful
water amusement park at "Hof Golan".
On land, air or water, Israel offers all the excitement one can possibly ask for in a vacation.
This, together with unique historical and cultural sites, makes for an ideal trip not to be
forgotten.
The "Society for the Protection of Nature in Israel" (SPNI) is traditionally the Israelis’ choice
for traveling throughout Israel. SPNI’s new program, "The Action Club," goes around the
country choosing the best location and using expert instructors for scuba diving, repelling,
camel-back exploring, and sailing. Participants share the excitement of these activities while
getting closer to the environment, and at the same time, visit all the important historical
sites. No experience is required since all activities are taught beginning with the basics.
You refine your new skills as you travel and explore the natural wonders throughout Israel.
This program is designed for the "young at heart" who want to see Israel in a different way.
The package includes all meals and evening activities such as a party cruise on the Red Sea,
a bedouin feast and other excitements.
SPNI is a non-profit organization, and all funds from its operation are devoted to protecting
the natural beauty of Israel. More information about "The Action Club" can be obtained
from: SPNI, 330 Seventh Avenue, 21st Floor, New York, NY 10001. Tel. (212) 947-2820
