See this post, which provides details about how I obtained insurance in Tunis to cover me when I was riding in Tunisia in 2019: Tunisia vehicle insurance?.
The port authorities were not at all concerned that I didn't have insurance when I arrived at the port - in fact, the officer in charge told me to just ride downtown and buy the insurance the next day. I did just that, and it took several hours at the big insurance company office to get the insurance... I think that not too many visitors actually buy insurance. I think that there might be an insurance booth at the port, but it was not open when I arrived on the ferry.
Be aware that the premium you pay will be based on the value of the motorcycle you declare, even though the insurance you get is (for the most part) liability only. So don't overstate the value of your motorcycle.
Lastly, you might want to read my post earlier in this same thread about the customs penalties that I had to pay when I returned to pick my motorcycle up. Here's the link: post #30, above. I won't ever be returning to Tunisia.
