Foreign Affairs and International Trade Canada advises against non-essential travel to Lebanon due to heightened tensions and crime.
Ensure that your travel documents are up to date and register yourselves and your families online with the Registration of Canadians Abroad (ROCA) service in order to receive the latest advice from the Canadian embassy in Beirut.

We strongly advise you to reconsider your need to travel to Lebanon at this time because of the unpredictable security and political situation. The situation could deteriorate without warning.
Violence is possible due to ongoing political and sectarian tensions. Violent incidents resulting in deaths and injuries continue to occur throughout the country. Australians could be caught up in violence directed at others. If violence escalates, departure options may be severely limited. You are responsible for ensuring you are able to depart Lebanon and that your travel documentation remains up-to-date.
The primary road between downtown Beirut and the international airport can be blocked without warning. Access to the airport may be cut off, potentially for extended periods, if the security situation deteriorates.
