Bat Yam Seafront (Hebrew: רצועת חוף בת ים), or Bat Yam Beachfront, runs along the Mediterranean seashore of the city of Bat Yam, Israel. The 3.5km coastal strip adjoins the Tel Aviv Promenade to the north, and is mostly used for leisure and recreational activities and open to the general public, mainly as bathing beaches, a boardwalk and parks.
