Libya's economy boosted by domestic tourism growth amid conflict and devalued currency
Summer days in Misrata, Libya’s third-largest city and economic hub, showcase its growth as a holiday destination, driven by private developments like beach resorts. After a decade of conflict and a humanitarian crisis have devalued Libya's currency, making overseas travel unaffordable for many. This has led to a surge in domestic tourism, creating opportunities for local developers and tourism operators. Resort employees report thriving business, with hopes that Misrata will become a tourist landmark as investors continue building small beach resorts, aiming for stability and international recognition.
