The best way to maintain your work-life balance is to pay a visit to some of Lebanon’s most idyllic spots. Known for their lovely views, serene landscapes, and natural wonders, here are 9 spots that we think are just too good to be true.
1. The salt marshes, Anfeh
This aerial view of the salt marshes in Anfeh captures its significance to the coastal town. It is believed to be one of the oldest salt production sites in the region. It’s brilliant architecture will surely capture your imagination, and that is definitely worth a visit (and a few photos) alone.
2. Zahlan Grotto, Dennieh
Adventurers will fall in love with Zahlan Grotto and the beauty of its calcite formations. This gorgeous natural spot is made up of three main parts: the main cave, a lower cave, and a third cave where the Zahlan fountain resides.
3. La Jetée, Bcharre
If you want to feel like you’re on top of the world, five minutes spent at this scenic location will transform your week. A magnificent spot that is particularly breathtaking at sunset, and even more enjoyable when coated in snow.
4. Ras Al Bayada, Nakoura
Watch the waves crash and snap some amazing shots of the sea from a new point of view. A spot that you must visit with a few adventure-loving friends on your trip to the south.
5. Meghrak Abdelli, Batroun
Meghrak Abdelli is a natural spot that belongs in a fairytale. The surrounding landscape boasts a biodiverse flora that any nature lover will swoon over. Make a trip to this spot with your dad and see how many trees he can name just by looking at them.
6. Al Fizr, Kfarmatta
A giant rock fissure tucked away in the heart of Kfarmatta that will surely knock your socks off, as it is unlike any other natural spot in Lebanon. On your visit, make sure a local is tagging along so you can locate it (without getting lost).
7. Baatara Gorge Waterfall, Tannourine
Now is the perfect time to visit the famous Balou Balaa, which is likely gushing with water following the intense rainfall. The sight will forever be imprinted in your memory, and you will file this spot under “magical places I need to visit during every season”.
8. Ammiq Wetlands, Bekaa

9. Oyoun Orgosh, Bekaa
Who wouldn’t want to pay this picturesque spot a visit? A memorable road trip and picnic awaits. If you’re a hiking fanatic, make a detour following your trip to Qorna El Sawda and settle down at Oyoun Orgosh.
