"Rosh HaNiqra: Magical grottos and tunnels" Kefar Rosh HaNiqra by WorldMeet2008

Verbally translated from Hebrew: "head of the rock caves".

Rosh Hanikra is in the northwestern corner of Israel, on the border of Israel and Lebanon. The cliffs offer a spectacular panoramic view of Haifa Bay, the hills of the Galilee and the Mediterranean.

The Rosh HaNikra grottos are cavernous tunnels formed by sea action on the soft chalk rock. The total length is some 200 meters. They branch off in various directions with some interconnecting segments. In the past, the only access to them was from the sea and experienced divers were the only ones capable of visiting. Today a cable car takes visitors down to see the grottos.
