Stream of Sharks is an artificial reef located off the coast of Caesarea. This shallow site reaches a maximum depth of 3 metres. The area is defined by a unique thermal environment created by warm water discharge from a nearby power plant, which can be 10 degrees Celsius warmer than the surrounding sea. Divers must navigate strong currents, rip currents, and variable visibility ranging from 3 to 8 metres. Shore entry requires crossing a surf break, which can be rough. Due to the presence of entanglement risks within the structure, strong currents, and surf, this site is suited for intermediate to advanced divers.
