Iris Nature Reserve, Nature reserve in Central District, Israel.

Iris Nature Reserve is a protected natural area in Central District featuring open grasslands interspersed with water sources. The landscape supports native plant species and wildlife across gently varying terrain.

The sources document the reserve as a nature reserve in Netanya by the Mediterranean, next to the seasonal winter pool known as Breichat Dora; they give no founding date or account of its creation. Its Hebrew name, Shemurat HaIrusim, comes from the iris that grows there. The reserve and the adjacent pool together form an important tourism area for Netanya.

The reserve is named after Iris atropurpurea, the dark-purple iris that blooms there in spring; the Hebrew name Shemurat HaIrusim means "Reserve of the Irises". The coastal iris is one of the plants listed on the reserve's information signs, which describe the local flora to visitors.

The reserve sits by the Mediterranean in Netanya, next to the seasonal winter pool known as Breichat Dora, and entry is free. A path descends the cliff to the sea. On-site are picnic areas, children's playground equipment and signs explaining the plants.
