3rd world ferries are not my favorite transportation, but I think there's one to Cyprus and one to Turkey from Beirut - if the Israelis haven't shut down the port yet.

Israelis were hitting the Airport again today from Navy vessels. I believe they pretty well have the ports closed up.

There is a naval blockade.

A ferry to Cyprus was my first choice but the Israeli navy has imposed a full naval blockade.

I was going to suggest Turkey or Cyprus also, North or West. East does not sound like a good idea.

I heard earlier that the Lebanese ports were under blockade by the Isreali navy, so that may not be an option.
