En Gev Attractions

The kibbutz of En Gev, founded in 1937, lies on the eastern shore of the Sea of Galilee, at the foot of a tell on which are the remains of ancient Susita. The kibbutz can be reached from Tiberias either by the land route (28km/17mi) or by boat (9km/6mi). Until 1967 it was accessible only by boat: a road built in 1941 was cut in 1948, when Syrian forces advanced to the shores of the lake.
