Bograshov Beach: Our Insiders Guide
By Solomon Wiesen, TLV Beaches. Last reviewed October 2026.
Bograshov Beach is the young, social beach at the sea end of Bograshov Street, between Frishman Beach and the Trumpeldor stretch, a short walk from the HaYarkon Street hotels. It is a lifeguarded swimming beach with soft, wide sand, volleyball courts, a playground and an accessible path onto the sand, and the matkot games rarely stop. It stays busy all year: expect Israeli teenagers, American singles and tourists, and a crowd on sunny winter days too.
1. Central Location
Bograshov Beach is ideally situated between Frishman and Jerusalem Beaches, and is about a 10 to 15 minute walk from Dizengoff Center, one of Tel Aviv’s largest shopping malls. Between Bograshov and Jerusalem Beach lies the Trumpeldor stretch, where swimming is not allowed.
2. Accessibility
Like every declared beach in Tel Aviv, Bograshov keeps two beach wheelchairs for visitors with disabilities; ask the beach staff. For the accessible facilities at each beach, check the municipality’s beach services table.
3. Busy All Year
Unlike some other beaches in the city, Bograshov Beach stays busy throughout the year, with people on the sand and on the promenade even on sunny winter days.
