The Galilee Boat of Kibbutz Ginosar Photos

Large Boats like this one take tourists from Kibbutz Ginosar on the northwest shore of the Sea of Galilee to the northern shore, where they board their bus at the Capernaum National Park.

This is a replica of the ancient Galilee Boat, also called the “Jesus Boat” because it sailed on the lake in the first century AD. There is no evidence it was used by Jesus.

View northwest: Kibbutz Ginosar (center shoreline) with its Yigal Allon Center (upper left) and boats (see top photo on page 216) that take tourists across the Sea of Galilee.
