There was plenty of car parking spaces.
Buying the tickets was easy.
The cable cars run regularly and the staff were all friendly.
Nice photographic moments.

Interesting place - but check the weather before going
Nov 2022
We enjoyed our visit here but unfortunately came on a day when there was a storm and the surf was so high you could not really walk very far into the cave. Indeed, the waves were so strong, we got quite wet. That said, we enjoyed our visit and had a nice time and would come back in calmer weather if we are there again. Checking on the weather before going out to the area is likely a good idea.

Beautiful sea views
Jun 2022 • Family
Rosh HaNikra delivers when it comes to beautiful sea views that take your breath away. It’s a short cable car ride to the grottos. The sea enters the caves and you can see the fish and the cliffs. We also were delighted with the rock rabbits at the end of the old train tunnel. My 5 yo daughter was a bit scared to enter the grottos after seeing the film showing that there are bats in the caves. There were no bats in the end.

Beautiful

Beautiful site to visit with family and kids all ages. Your dogs included! The term to get down there is short and not scary at all. The tour is beautiful. Make sure you're coming with good shoes cause it's really slippery there! Don't miss this

Disappointing
Aug 2020
It is a nice place, but I think it is also one of the most overrated and overpriced tourist attractions in Israel. We arrived at 9 (when they open the doors), and got to the grottoes at 10. The lines are very long even in the morning and we had to wait mostly under the sun. The grottoes are nice but the water inside was full of garbage which is really disappointing. The whole grotto experience is not more the 20 minutes. After that we wanted to rent bikes, but after we had seen those very neglected and rusty bikes we opted for the golfcar. You can drive it to the neighboring Betzet Beach. But if you go to Betzet you can drive/walk the same path - for free. Going back we waited another 40 minutes (no shade).

Worthwhile site but long waits to get in
Aug 2020
The site is beautiful and recommended but, at the moment, because of restrictions of people in confined spaces, we waited for 1.5 hours outside to get to the cable car. I was pleasantly surprised to see that they distributed ices to people waiting in the hot sun. However much they tried to enforce the social distancing, the visitors would not adhere to the rules. I recommend arriving first thing in the morning to avoid crowds.
It was worth the wait though.

Amazing caves
Jun 2020
Rosh HaNikra is located on the northern Israeli border. Getting down (and up) to the caves is via a very short (and steep) cable car ride. The Grottoes are amazing, especially when there are high waves. Definitely one of the top attractions of northern Israel.
