Migdal ninja warrior playground

Outdoor ninja-warrior playground in Migdal on the Sea of Galilee — not Migdal HaEmek.

Yigal Allon Centre / Ancient Boat

A first-century boat that works for children because the museum tells the discovery story instead of merely displaying an old object.

Shay’s boat dock

A small speedboat dock behind the Yigal Allon Centre — tourist and group tours, up to 12 people. Not the church ‘Jesus boat.’

Degania First Yard

The 1912 first yard of the oldest kibbutz in modern Israel — grass to run on, a living courtyard, not a plaque-only stop.

Gordon House Museum

The Degania kids interactive experience lives here — taxidermy, Kinneret habitats, and Illuminating Nature — not a separate unnamed stop.
