7 Great Things To Do in Tel Aviv When You Are Alone

Here are seven great things to do in Tel Aviv when you’re alone! If you are coming to Tel Aviv on vacation and have time on your hands in between sightseeing, or if you have some free time in the city, there are plenty of things to do while traveling alone in Tel Aviv!

1. Stroll Along the Waterfront in Tel Aviv

It’s a great way to take in the views of the Mediterranean Sea and Jaffa Port, and there are plenty of benches along the way where you can stop for a break. The promenade is also lined with shops, restaurants, and cafés.

A visit to Tel Aviv is only complete with sampling some local cuisine. Stop by one of the many food stands or restaurants that line the promenade for fish sandwiches or falafel on pita bread.

If you’re feeling adventurous, rent an electric scooter from one of the kiosks along the way and explore this part of town at your own pace!

2) Visit Jaffa

Situated near the southern end of Tel Aviv’s coastline, Jaffa is an ancient port city that has seen many different rulers come and go. The first mention of the area can be found in an inscription from Pharaoh Thutmose III, who ruled 3,500 years ago. Today, visitors can enjoy exploring its winding streets and taking in some incredible views. So what are you waiting for? Get out there and explore!

Top Places to visit Jaffa alone:

Yad La-Shiryon Museum: Located on historical Allenby Road, Yad La-Shiryon has a unique collection. The word yad is Hebrew for hand, focusing on the former hands of soldiers who died during the war. Visiting it may be difficult for some, but everyone should try to see it at least once. The main entrance can be found on 2 Ha’arba’ah Street in Jaffas Old City.

Ha’Azma’ut Park: Founded and constructed in 1953, Ha’Azma’ut is a small park that’s become a wonderful green space for Tel Aviv’s residents. Many people have taken advantage of it for leisure and recreation activities, such as walking, running, cycling, or sitting along its well-maintained pathways. It’s also often used as a site for significant cultural events and music festivals. For example, every December, thousands of locals head to Ha’Azma’ut when they turn it into Little Christmas Village with activities like ice skating, candy workshops, bonfires, and musical performances by famous singers. There are picnic areas, too, if you’d prefer to stay away all day long!

Nalaga’at Center: Designed for people with disabilities, Nalaga’at is a colorful workshop and activity space located on Tarsal Street. It’s fun for visitors and residents of all ages. Some of its workshops include ceramics, weaving, and other art forms. There’s even a tiny café serving delicious desserts that you should stop by if you have time! All sorts of craft activities are constantly taking place at Nalaga’at too, so you never know what you might find when you visit! Make sure you don’t leave until you see what they do with recycled goods like old tires or glass bottles – it’s something else. Visit anytime during opening hours.

3) Check Out the Street Art in Tel Aviv

Tel Aviv’s street art is impressive. Most of the time, you’ll find it on walls around Jaffa, but if you wander down a random street you’ll probably stumble upon some incredible pieces. Some really great murals can be found in alleyways and other out-of-the-way places. It’s worth the exploration because you never know what you might find!

4) Shop at the Carmel Market in Tel Aviv

The Carmel Market is a must-visit spot while you’re in Tel Aviv. Spend the morning or afternoon wandering through this bustling marketplace and checking out some of the most delicious food, spices, and baked goods you can find. In addition, it’s one of the best places to pick up souvenirs and gifts for friends back home.

Fashionistas will love browsing through the many high-end designer shops on Dizengoff Street. Start at Ironi Gallery for trendy clothes, accessories, shoes, and more from worldwide. Next up is Rami Levi Outlet, where you’ll find brand-name clothing from designers like Calvin Klein, Nike, Adidas Originals, and more at discounted prices.

5) Relax at the Beach in Tel Aviv

Tel Aviv has beautiful beaches that are perfect for relaxing and enjoying the sun. Head down to the beach on your own and enjoy a few hours of solitude with incredible scenery. If you’re looking for more than just sand, plenty of cafes and bars nearby serve drinks and food! Eat & Drink: There’s no better way to relax after spending all day at the beach than going out for dinner or grabbing a coffee. Make sure to check out my favorite restaurant, Bazaar Cafe. They have delicious vegan options, and they also sell organic tea leaves that I use every day. There is always live music, making it feel like an even more excellent place to hang out in!

6) People Watch in Dizengoff Square

I’m not a huge people watcher, but when I travel, I always stop and people-watch. It’s a great way to get out of the hostel and interact with locals. With over 300 falafel stands in Tel Aviv, it’s easy to find something delicious to eat! Just walk up to any perspective on the street or look for reviews online beforehand for recommendations.

7) Diamond Exchange Tour

You can do many things when visiting Israel, but one of the more fun activities is the diamond tour. Diamonds have been sourced from Israel since Biblical times, and today, many of the world’s top diamond cutters and polishers work out of Ramat Gan. Take a tour of the Ramat Gan Diamond Exchange to see how diamonds come together. The company provides tours that last around 45 minutes, with most people satisfied with their visit. Not only will you learn about the history of diamonds in Israel, but you’ll also get to see precisely how they are transfrom! Book your tour by clicking here.
