Chekka sits along Lebanon’s northern coastline on the Mediterranean. It’s not a major diving hub, but nearby areas along the Lebanese coast provide access to coastal dives and shallow reefs. With a handful of local dive centers scattered along the shore, divers often base themselves in coastal towns for day trips to nearby dive sites. Water is typically warm in summer and cooler in winter, with visibility varying by conditions. Expect modest marine life typical of the Levantine coast and straightforward shore or boat dives in the region.
