Now that the weather is a bit more decent, it’s time for a road trip in the South of Lebanon, one of L&F’s favorite destinations!

Start by Saida, with a traditional Lebanese breakfast at the famous Abou Abed in the port. Roam around the streets of the old souk (recently renovated) and admire the Citadel.

Then head to Naqoura, South of Tyre, to enjoy some of the most beautiful beaches in Lebanon. Turquoise resort is a very good option there: as the name suggests, the water is crystal clear!

Finish the day on your way back in Tyre, where you can eat some of the best fish in the country. We tried the Phenicien on the Corniche last time, and highly recommend the shrimp salad and the “habibiya” desert.

Before heading back, enjoy a walk in the old port: you’ll get to admire the old buildings AND avoid the weekend traffic. Have fun! 🙂
