Israel is supposed to be e Startup and Hi-tech country and yet here you'll fell right in the Middle East.
An experience you shouldn't miss.
Especially if to reach the port you've had a Humus at Shamsia or Said and stroll through the Arab market."

"One of the most vibrant areas in Akko, if you're in the area you must go. On the water, beautiful, and full of life. There are numerous boat rides along the port which can be taken for between 10 and 20 NIS per person. There are small food kiosks along the port as well. The Akko market is a few minutes walk away as well as a number of other sites including the Wall Beach."

"Beautiful port with so much to see. I went a few times over the weekend with my four children and everyone enjoyed.
The best part? 15 minute boat rides for only 10 or 20 shekels!"
