Visit Al Wahat District


The Al Wahat District of Libya is a coastal region located in the western part of the country, along the Mediterranean Sea. It is best known for its beautiful beaches and stunning mountain scenery. Tourists here can explore historical sites, such as its Roman city of Sabratha, or visit nearby Leptis Magna, one of the most well-preserved ancient cities in North Africa. Visitors may also take part in outdoor activities like fishing and hiking, or relax on one of its many resorts or beachfronts.

Al Wahat has a fascinating history as well - it was an important center for Islamic learning during the medieval period and played a key role in different periods of Libyan history prior to modern times. An interesting fact about this district is that it hosted battles between Ottoman forces and local tribes during World War I before eventually becoming part of Libya under Italian rule in 1923.
