What a great ride. I planned to do from Tel Aviv to Haifa 2 days ago but failed because of the heat and late start. So I did the second half in the opposite direction.

Downhill to the new promenade in Haifa, then south next to the shore. It got really pretty and empty once I left Haifa. Nice tracks with more or less smooth ground / gravel surface, views of the sea and still some flowers left . It did get hot around Atlit, so I made a pit stop there. Once I have left Atlit it got even prettier. 
‍HaBonim beach was absolutely gorgeous and empty - just 5 people. With the little kiosk and basic amenities it felt like I'm abroad. I just had to have a swim, it was awesome.
Nahsholim village with the museum, very, very cute. Some marked but non existent ways made the ride almost into a real adventure (I did a fair amount of OpenStreetMaps editing later). 
Cycling between fish ponds on unmarked trail, beautiful dunes and lagoons. Scenery that I didn't existed in Israel. Overall an amazing ride, highly recommended. 
One note - in between Jusr Az Zarqa and  Caesaria I think it'd be better to cycle on the shore and not via Caesaria. You'd have a chance to see some ruins and a beautiful Roman aqueduct.

Very easy to do on Friday using public transportation.
