Over the three days of Eid al-Fitr, hundreds of thousands of Palestinians living in the West Bank were allowed to enter Israel. Tens of thousands of them chose the beach between Tel Aviv and Jaffa as their preferred spot to spend leisure time. For those living beyond the Separation Wall, this was their first and perhaps only visit to the beach. The three days of the vacation gave the Palestinians a one-time glimpse of life within the borders of Israel, and the Israelis - an example of co-existence in a shared region.
