i went to netanya and the beach there was amazing. we went early in the morning and it was completely empty and there was a really great restauraunt right on the beach. we went during the weekdays because on the weekends its much too crowded.

i only went to bars that my cousin took me to but i can recommend a fantastic restaraunt in abu ghosh called "the lebanese restaraunt". if you go you will know which one it is because it is the only legitimate looking restaraunt in the village. we went there everytime we visited jerusalem on the way back.

and not a bar/restaraunt/beach, but i recommend going to dalit el-carmel, it's a druze village (the druze people are pro-israel arabs, extremely patriotic for their country) and good for legit souvenirs and amazing food.

if you have any other questions feel free to ask because i've been to israel every other year since i was little.
