The Nordau Beach was created in response to the needs of the religious community. In Judaism, women and men cannot go to a mixed beach where men and women mingle due to modesty reasons. However, there is no problem with men and women enjoying all that the beach has to offer with people of the same gender.
On Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday, the beach is open exclusively for women. Many non religious women bathe in the nude on these days. On Monday, Wednesday and Friday, the Religious Beach is just for men. On Saturday this area of the beach is open to both the male and female public and the beach becomes like any other beach along the Tel Aviv promenade. Therefore the Nordau Beach is surrounded by high walls that separate it from the neighboring Hilton and Sheraton Beaches, ensuring that people of the opposite gender will not be able to see whoever is visiting the beach.
The women's days usually attract many of Tel Aviv's non religious ladies, who want to sunbathe in the nude without being hassled by the Israeli men. It doesn't really seem to bother the other women too much. So all in all, this beach is a pretty nice and usually less crowded than other beaches.
