Advanced wall dive in Amchit, Lebanon.
The Edge is a steep Amchit wall in Lebanon where a vertical reef face drops into deep blue water and rewards disciplined trim, calm buoyancy, and strong depth awareness. It is an advanced training and exploration dive rather than a casual swim, and it works best when a local Amchit operator can match the plan to current, visibility, and sea state.

Depth range, seasonality, and planning context.
Reported Depth
30m - 50m
Depth Note
A pronounced wall drop-off from 30m to 50m makes this a deep profile with little margin for sloppy buoyancy.
Best Season
Late summer to autumn, especially the calm September-to-December window.
Typical Conditions
Current-swept wall diving with the clearest water in the calmer autumn window; winter winds can make some areas less accessible.
Hazards, restrictions, and access requirements.
Key Hazards
Safety Notes
Use precise buoyancy, track gas and depth carefully, and only dive the wall with a local Amchit guide when the sea is settled.
Access Restrictions
Treat this as a guide-led wall dive rather than a casual self-guided entry.
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
Suitable as a training location for advanced diving courses, with depth ranging roughly 30–50 m.
Freediving
Only for experienced freedivers who are comfortable on a deep wall and can manage depth, trim, and current.
Snorkeling
Not a casual snorkel site; the wall is too deep and is better suited to scuba or advanced freediving.
