Wedding venues in Batroun
Lebanon's favourite summer town: clear water, beach clubs, an old stone souk and lively nights, about an hour north of Beirut.

Region guide: Batroun
About 50 km from Beirut · North Lebanon
Batroun sits on the coast about 50 km north of Beirut, roughly an hour's drive outside rush hour. It is one of the oldest towns on the Lebanese coast, and you can still see the Phoenician sea wall that protected its harbour.
In summer the town fills up with people heading to its beach clubs and rocky swimming spots, where the water is some of the clearest on the coast. Evenings are spent in the old souk, around Saint Stephen's church by the port, and in the bars and restaurants that keep the town busy late into the night. Do not leave without a glass of Batroun's famous fresh lemonade.
