Dugit

Dugit

Established in the month of Iyar 5750, May 1990 on the northern shore of the Gaza region. The initial group consisted of three families who decided to make their life by the sea.
The name of the community reflects its unique character – “Dugit” is a small canoe or fishing boat.
The community belonged to the Amana Movement and comprised of some 20 families (about 70 people).
The residents’ main occupation was the sea and everything relating to it: Life-saving services, fish pools, marine agriculture, tourism, fish restaurants and more. The vision of the residents was to make progress in that direction and create a unique tourism and fishing resort.
