10 Rainproof Activities For a Stormy Day in Lebanon

Rain, rain, has come our way but that doesn’t mean we’ll wash away. If you’re not a person who uses rain as an excuse to get out of plans, here’s 10 rainproof activities we’ve primed for you.

1. Hit the gym!

Oh you’re actually gonna do that? But that would make the rest of this guide redundant. Listen just procrastinate a bit for me, you’ll do that tomorrow promise.


2. Spa Day

Now that we’ve got the gym out of the way, why not actually give yourself a nice rainy day treat with a full spa day. Let your muscles untangle as you sit in the sauna and steam away your stormy stress.



3. Museum visits

If you’re feeling less self carey and more artsy, why not have a museum day. Absorb your dose of culture in the warm embrace of Lebanon’s museums or check out the Allo, Beirut exhibition running in Beit Beirut.



4. Movie watchings

Museums too high brow for your liking? Hit the cinema and absorb the blockbuster awesomeness of the world’s newest films.



5. Indoor swimming sessions

If you’re looking for a more active activity, maybe one of Lebanon’s indoor swimming pools is the right place for you . The contrast of your heated water with thunder and rain drops, creates a truly unique experience that we’re sure you’ll enjoy.


6. Bowling games

Have a couple friends who don’t know how to swim? It’s time for a nice bowling game. Crash your ball into a stack of pins and recreate the roar of thunder while you pretend to be a God crashing a burst of lightning onto the Earth.



7. Escape rooms

Oh, is bowling too simple for you? Then we’d like to see how you’d fare taking on the mental obstacle courses in Lebanon’s escape rooms.



8. Cozy cafe readings

It’s time to strip it back to basics, a nice sweater, a book, and a main character moment at your favorite cozy cafes.



9. Alcohol is the warmest color

Or if coffee’s not like your style, nothing will warm you up faster than a good drink at a crowded pub.



10. Just Binge

If all that doesn’t appeal to you then I know where your heart truly lies. Sit back and binge watch that trash television (Dubai Bling) all day under the comfort of your blanket and in the company of your pet. No one is judging you.
