The Daniel Rowing Centre is Israel’s leading rowing facility. Located on the bank of the Yarkon River in Tel Aviv, it’s the home of Israel’s national rowing team, and a leader in rowing, kayaking and sailing classes for children and youth.
Competitive Rowing is a unique Olympic sport, with a growing popularity in Israel. Requiring technique, focus and precision, rowing shapes your body, builds stamina, and develops strength. In crew boats and skiffs, it’s the fastest muscle-powered boat in the world. The Daniel Rowing Centre offers top professional instructors, quality equipment, and a thriving social atmosphere – for kids, adults and premier athletes alike. Join us for exciting action on the water!
Open Sea Kayaking is challenging, and requires technique and courage. It’s ideal for leisure and touring, as well as extreme action & fun. The Daniel Rowing Centre is home to one of Israel’s leading kayaking clubs, headed by Rami Gil and his internationally qualified instructors. The club offers trial lessons and courses in Sea kayaks, Olympic kayaks and Surfski. Guided group excursions are scheduled throughout the week, and long distance adventures in Israel and abroad are organised several times a year.
Dragon Boats offer a ‘do it together’ team experience – all in a boat, operating it as one. It’s a unique team and leadership development platform, for both personal and group skills. The Yarkon River offers an unforgettable city-nature adventure. Suitable for both large groups and small teams. Pupils, students, Hi-Tech firms, Banks, IDF and police units, families, tourists – join us for an unforgettable outing!
9 years ago we launched a program for youth at risk and with special needs. We named it ‘Sea of Friends’. Combining emotional experiences in the open sea, and processing them with cognitive tools, is at the heart of this program. Each meeting integrates three parts: An opening workshop, a nautical activity in the boats, and a processing workshop. We also developed unique programs for people with disabilities: visually impaired, Parkinson’s sufferers, mental illnesses, autistic children, and breast cancer survivors. Hundreds of participants later, it’s time to tell and share. Partly because, yes, we’re proud, but mostly so that you will help us reach more audiences – more groups of kids and juveniles who could benefit, more people with special needs who can be included.
