The Tayelet
Tel Aviv’s Mediterranean coastline is hugged by a paved boardwalk dubbed “The Tayelet.” Its restaurants, ice cream parlors, and jogging path are hugged by an unparalleled stretch of bike lanes that make zipping up and down its 13.5 kilometers a breeze. The city’s bikeshare program, Tel-O-Fun, has a number of convenient stations along the boardwalk, making it easy to rent and ride.
