“This is what truly sets Beth El apart — the Beach Shabbaton is where I first began to feel like part of the community when I joined the synagogue. It’s the perfect blend of connection, relaxation, and renewal. Everyone should experience it at least once!”

Beach Shabbaton 2025!

When: December 19-21, 2025
Where: Trinity Center, Emerald Isle, NC
What: The Beth El Beach Shabbaton is one of our community’s most cherished traditions. Each year, more than 100 of us pack up and head to the North Carolina coast for a cozy winter weekend together. Picture it: the beachside Trinity Center, crisp ocean air, good food, and even better company—it’s the perfect mix of rest, renewal, and community.

We gather to play, pray, learn, schmooze, and, of course, nosh — a highlight many look forward to year after year. Whether you’re a longtime attendee or joining for the first time, all Beth El members are warmly invited to be part of this beloved tradition.

This December, come experience our shtetl by the sea once again.
