Read moreAdjacent to the Marina du Saint-Georges, Zaitunay Bay is a residential and tourist complex that includes some twenty restaurants and cafés. Inaugurated at the end of 2011, it was built on the former Normandy embankment, named after the Normandy hotel that was once nearby. During the civil war, this region was a vast dump site housing more than 5 million m3 of garbage and debris. After years of treatment and cleaning, 18 hectares have been developed by Solidere, the company responsible for rebuilding the city centre. Today, Zaitunay Bay offers a pleasant pedestrian walk, a very good selection of restaurants and cafés, as well as a very high-end hotel, the Beirut Yatch Club.
