Achziv Islands (also Achziv Beach Islands) are a group of small Israeli islands in the Mediterranean Sea. Each island is a few hundred square meters in area, with a reef is composed of small limestone blocks.

The Achziv islands - Nahlieli, Shahaf and Achziv - are located west of the Akhziv shore. They are actually the tops of a sunken sandstone ridge. Seagulls and terns nest on Nahlieli. The islands are part of the Rosh HaNikra Islands Nature Reserve.[1]
