Hecht Park is the largest stretch of greenery within the city of Haifa, running alongside the beaches and municipal open areas, between the Dado Beach, the beach-side hotels and the Israel Oceanographic and Limnological Research Center. Hecht Park spans across eighteen acres. Hecht Park is unique in its multifaceted construction, offering activities appealing to children and adults. The playground next to the southern parking lot contains new equipment that includes swings, climbing apparatus and "Omega" pulley that allows kids to slide midair across the beach. Grassy areas for picnics, workout equipment for adults, natural pathways that are ideal for walking, running and hiking and seasonal water pools are just some of the attractions on offer.
