The Bou Regreg is a tidal river estuary that separates Rabat from its sister city Salé. Its banks are lined with modern promenades, cafes, and gardens, making it a popular spot for leisurely walks, cycling, and picnics. Boat tours offer a unique perspective of the two cities, passing historic landmarks like the Hassan Tower and the Kasbah of the Udayas. The river is especially lively at sunset when the sky reflects off the water and locals gather to relax.

Don't miss

  • Take a boat tour to see Rabat and Salé from the water.
  • Walk or cycle along the landscaped promenades on both banks.
  • Watch the sunset over the estuary from the Rabat side near the marina.
