Betset
Not accessible in summer, but September to April. There are even some parasols (of the Banana Public Beach) there, against potential rain.
Buses 32 and 33 from Nahariyya go to the site, about 6 times a day. The trip is about 10 km each way, so it may be affordable by taxi if several people are travelling.
