North Governorate

The North Governorate in Lebanon offers coastal diving along the eastern Mediterranean, with easy access from Tripoli and nearby towns like Batroun, Selaata, and Enfeh. The region features shallow shore dives and small wrecks, with typical Mediterranean visibility and temperate water, depending on the season. Local dive centers serve the area, focusing on beginner to intermediate dives and buoyancy skills, with favorable access from the northern coastline. Marine life commonly includes reef fish, mollusks, and seagrass habitats in nearshore areas. The region’s diving character is influenced by its proximity to the Lebanon coast and limited large-scale offshore sites, giving recreational divers convenient options without long boat rides.
