See Israel Formalities for full details on clearing into and out of the country.
This is a convenient port of entry for yachtsman arriving from Turkey and Cyprus.
New arrivals are met by a Navy boat who will alert the officials and guide you to the clearance dock. Clearance takes place at the Shavit Marina and the offices are open 24/7.
The designated dock for clearance (a concrete pen) is a concrete dock set up for a small travel-lift and is a bit awkward to enter. If you speak with the marina in advance you may be able to organize clearance from your marina berth (as this is possible for outward clearance).
Clearing out is arranged after payment of dues and is relatively quick.
It's quite possible you may be escorted to the 12NM international limit by an Israeli gunboat.
