Hazards

SANDBAR Forgiving sandy bottom with occasional rocks — short, punchy waves breaking close to shore.
RIP W/SW windswell builds a rip on bigger winter days — stay clear of the rockier stretches at each end.
URBAN CROWDS The most accessible break in Beirut, so it's also the busiest — especially on weekends.
POLLUTION Beirut coastal water quality varies — check after heavy rain when storm drains overflow.
