Mostafa Spot

Mostafa Spot is a surf break in Lebanon on the Mediterranean coast, known more as a local wave-riding spot than a widely famous international surf destination. Conditions in Lebanon are highly seasonal and storm-dependent, so Mostafa Spot typically works best when winter swells from the Mediterranean line up with favorable winds.

Quick description

• Location: Lebanon, Mediterranean coastline
• Type of break: Likely a beachbreak or mixed coastal break depending on the exact section of shore
• Best season: Autumn through winter, when storms generate more consistent swell
• Wave quality: Can be fun and punchy on the right day, but usually inconsistent compared with major ocean surf regions
• Crowd level: Usually light to local-only, since Lebanon has a relatively small surf scene

What to expect

• Smaller, less powerful waves most of the year
• Occasional short-lived surfable pulses after Mediterranean lows
• Conditions can change quickly with wind and weather
• The spot may be best for shortboard, fish, or funboard surfing depending on the swell

Good to know

• Because surf in Lebanon depends heavily on weather systems, it’s a good idea to check local reports, wind forecasts, and recent photos before going.
