You step off the gangway into the salt-tanged air of the Ashdod cruise terminal and the Mediterranean immediately sets the pace—blue water daring you to look past the shoreline. Within an hour you’re rolling into Jaffa: narrow stone alleys, a clock tower that has watched empires pass, and Abrasha Park’s low cliffs where the sea pushes light across the bay.
