Day 10
Drive one hour southeast of Tel Aviv to the area of the Judean foothills to participate in Dig for a Day --about three hours of digging and sifting, for pottery and other finds, and an exciting crawl through the cave systems in Beit Guvrin National Park (must be prearranged: http://www.archesem.com/).
Drive west to the sand dunes of Nitsanim, located 40 km south of Tel Aviv and north of Ashdod. Today a nature reserve, these sand dunes are one of the last remnants of a landscape once typical of Israel's southern coastal plain.
The rest of the day can be spent at leisure at the Sorek-Palmahim area, offering lovely trails, bird-watching sites where cormorants are the stars, and the beautiful Palmachim beach.
