FERRY from İskenderun, TURKEY to Asdod, ISRAEL.

I am looking for a way to enter Israel, and from what I see it is only possible by sea. I have looked for a ferry and I have seen that there was one from Iskenderun, Turkey to Ashdod. but I cannot find information on whether it is still operational. I have found that there are several ferries from Greece, Italy and Cyprus. there is also one from izmir, turkey. but I am interested in the shortest possible route, which would be from iskenderun.

I suggest to wait till end of the different lockdown habbits of the target countries before I would try to find a way trough.

We cant see how big is the harm to the economy, which ferry (or ferry lines) operators are on duty after this or not.

Dear Kauyumary,

I would definitely subscribe to what Surfy has written before.

At this time, Israel does not allow tourists to enter! The ferry from Iskenderun to Ashdod is currently not operating and hasn't been operating for some years. There is no ferry from Izmir to Israel.

Before Corona, there have been two options: a) with Grimaldi Freighter Cruises from Italy (Salerno and Monfalcone) and with b) Salamis (truck ferry) from near Athens via Cyprus. Not sure if they are operating at all at the moment but in any case I can not imagine that they are willing to take passengers because of the restrictions in Israel.

Greetings
Achim

There is no touristic acceptance right now existing - only returning nationals and residents are allowed to enter Isreal.

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
