Getting TO/AROUND: A typical cruise from Limassol to Beirut leaves the new harbour in Limassol at 20.00 and arrives in Beirut at 08.00 the next morning. This way you sleep on the boat, and arrive the next morning in time to see the city, but without having to worry about a hotel. Then depending on how long you stay in Beirut, the boat leaves around 23.00 in the evening, and again arrives in Limassol at about 11.00 a.m. the next day. It is an easy way to see Beirut for a day.
The cost is about CYP175 ($368) per person for a deluxe cabin, including meals on board. I personally found this a little too expensive, given that the accomodation and meals were adequate, but nothing special. However, you have to consider the price versus flying from Larnaca to Beirut - CYP100 - and then booking a hotel in Beirut for 2-nights? I am sure there are cheaper ways to see Beirut, but this is an easy way.
