This is Tabgha, the place of seven springs that empty into the sea. The spring water is warmer than the sea water, and fish are attracted here. But you can read about it here. http://www.bibleplaces.com/tabgha.htm

Such a lovely place. Hard to leave. |
We are loving this. Can you tell? |
Another view at Tabgha |
We stopped here briefly before going on to Capernaum, just to see Tabgha, the well of Capernaum.
Tabgha is believed to be the site of Christ feeding the 5,000. It is also believed to be the site of the events described in John 21, where Christ comes the third time (after his resurrection) to visit his apostles. Remember, they have been fishing all night without success and Jesus tells them to cast their nets on the right side of the boat, and their nets are filled with fish.
In this chapter He also asks Peter, "Lovest thou me?" He asks three times. Remember?
