History
The beginnings of the kibbutz were in December 1941, with the formation of a work company near Kiryat Haim by Jewish refugees from Czechoslovakia and Germany.[2] The meaning of the name HaHotrim (The Rowers) is symbolising the wishes of the founders to engage in fishing.[3] The kibbutz was established in 1952 on land that had belonged to the depopulated Palestinian village named al-Tira.[4][5]
