Frequently Asked Questions

What's the actual golf experience like at Lebanon's only course?

You'll play at the Golf Club of Lebanon, a classic 18-hole track right in Beirut. It's a well-maintained, parkland-style course that offers a pleasant round, often with views of the city or the Mediterranean in the distance. Don't expect championship-level challenge, but it's a solid, enjoyable round.

When is the best time of year to plan a golf trip to Lebanon?

We highly recommend visiting in spring (April-May) or fall (September-October). The weather is beautifully mild and sunny then, perfect for golf without the intense summer heat or the occasional winter rain. You'll find the course in prime condition during these shoulder seasons.

How accessible is the Golf Club of Lebanon for visitors, and what should I expect regarding costs?

Getting a tee time is generally straightforward; we suggest booking a few days in advance, especially on weekends. Green fees are reasonable, comparable to mid-range courses in Europe, and you can easily rent clubs if you're not traveling with your own. It's a welcoming club for international golfers.

Beyond the golf course, what are the must-do experiences for a visitor to Lebanon?

Lebanon offers an incredible blend of history, culture, and stunning landscapes. After your round, explore Beirut's vibrant food scene and ancient Roman ruins, or take a day trip to the ancient city of Byblos or the Cedars of God. It's a country that truly rewards exploration.

What makes playing golf in Lebanon a truly unique travel story?

Playing golf here isn't just about the game; it's about experiencing a vibrant country that many overlook. You're playing a historic course in a city steeped in millennia of history, often with a backdrop of mountains meeting the sea. It's a memorable, off-the-beaten-path golf adventure that few can claim.
