From the center of Tyre, head towards the seaside promenade known as the Corniche. You can start at the Tyre Souk, which is a popular area filled with shops and cafes. Once you reach the Corniche, walk west along the waterfront. Enjoy the beautiful views of the Mediterranean Sea as you stroll. Continue walking along the promenade until you reach the area near the Tyre Fishing Port, which will be on your left. From there, you will see signs pointing towards the lighthouse. Keep walking toward the coastline, and you will soon arrive at Tyre Lighthouse (Al Fanar), located at coordinates 33.2761883, 35.1932437.
