In early biblical times Canaan included the area that now includes Israel, the Palestinian territorities, Lebanon and western Syria. However, with the arrival of the Philistines around 1200 BCE, the coastal strip from Egypt north to approximately the location of modern Tel Aviv was excised from Canaan as Philistia.
The also depends on how broadly we define the term Canaanite. Some would define all West Semitic people as Canaanites. Under a broad definition, the Moabites and Edomites of western Jordan could be classified as Canaanites, although The Bible does not appear to regard them as such.
