Aquatic Adventure in Caesarea

Start Time - 9:00am in hotel lobby

This morning you will meet your guide and driver in the lobby of your hotel and head North along the coastline to Caesarea. Caesarea was King Herod the Great’s imposing port town, where Rome was
honored with temples, gladiators fought each other to the last, and games were played in celebration of the King and the empire. Later, Caesarea became a thriving Byzantine town, and then a Crusader
conquest, each civilization leaving its archaeological gems. For Christians Caesarea is of significance because of the stone tablet found near the amphitheater which is inscribed with the name Pontius Pilate, and dedicated to Tiberius Caesar who nominated him as procurator. Caesarea is also the place where the Apostle Paul was sent to stand trial, and as a Roman citizen demanded judgment in front of the Emperor.


Your expert guide will tell the tales of this once centrally important place, while you enjoy the fresh sea air. Following the tour of the site we will have the unique opportunity of viewing the hidden underwater ruins of Caesarea which sunk beneath the waves in an earthquake. Accompanied by a master diver we will take a snorkeling or diving excursion to view the sunken ruins. Wetsuits and equipment will be provided. This activity is pending the sea conditions of the day, please note minimum age limits apply to this activity.

Pricing - USD $233.00 Per Person (5 hour tour)
