The Phoenicians primarily sailed across the Mediterranean Sea, establishing colonies along its coasts. They founded significant trade centers and settlements in regions such as modern-day Tunisia, Lebanon, Cyprus, and parts of the Iberian Peninsula, including present-day Spain and Portugal. Notable colonies included Carthage, Tyre, and Sidon, which became crucial hubs for commerce and cultural exchange in the ancient world.
