this is because at this point the waveis not that strong but at the shore it gets forceful and increases in magnitude causing the tsunami
Yes a tsunami can occur in Lebanon but not a severe one, since the basin of the Mediterranean Sea is not wide enough.
tsunami
On average, two tsunamis occur per year. Approximately every 15 years a destructive, ocean-wide tsunami occurs. Tsunami's occur when an earthquake causes a significant vertical deformation of the seafloor.
Sometimes a tsunami can occur after an earthquake has taken place. You can know when a tsunami will occur by the way the water reacts at a beach near the ocean. The water will start to pull away from the beach faster than a tide will. When this happens, the tsunami is about to strike.
A tsunami did occur after the Christchurch earthquake, but it was relatively small and localized. The earthquake did not generate a large enough displacement of water to create a significant tsunami. Additionally, the orientation of the fault line and the shallow depth of the earthquake further limited the potential for a widespread tsunami.
most tsunami occur at the sea.

tsunami
well, tsunami's are caused by earthquakes and most earthquakes occur in the sea.
a focus . But really: A tsunami.
An earthquake occurred under the pacific sea floor.
Earthquakes could occur anywhere--on land or in sea. If they occur in the ocean, then they could trigger a tsunami warning.

after a big event at sea, ie a earthquake or i guess a really powerful nuke could perhaps cause one? the waves of a tsunami wont look too big at sea so don't try and go fart in the sea.

Tsunamis can be caused by earthquakes that occur on the ocean floor. Tsunamis are also referred to as Seismic Sea Waves
