Der Staat Israel im nahen Osten wird von vielen verschiedenen Religionen wie etwa dem Christentum, Judentum und dem Islam als das heilige Land gesehen und zahlreiche Gläubige pilgern alljährlich nach Jerusalem, der Hauptstadt Israels. Zahlreiche Orte sind der Religion gewidmet, doch das Land bietet auch darüber hinaus viel Sehenswertes. Die Mittelmeerküste von Israel lockt mit ihren kilometerlangen, feinen Sandstränden und wunderschönen Hafenanlagen zu ausgedehnten Spaziergängen oder auch Wassersportaktivitäten wie etwa Tauchen, Surfen und Segeln. Auch die Großstadt Tel Aviv-Jaffa bietet neben einer umfangreichen Geschichte viele Sehenswürdigkeiten wie beispielsweise die Weiße Stadt, einem UNESCO Welterbe, zahlreiche Museen, Kirchen und Muscheen sowie den Jachthafen, weshalb die Stadt besonders bei Wassersportlern sehr beliebt ist.
