Rabat, Morocco’s elegant coastal capital, offers a unique blend of history, culture, and seaside charm. With its relaxed pace, clean streets, and scenic Atlantic shoreline, Rabat is an ideal choice for travellers seeking a holiday with a touch of sophistication and authenticity. Families will find safe open spaces, leafy parks and beaches, while couples and culture lovers can enjoy Rabat’s rich heritage, art galleries, and café culture.
Rabat enjoys a mild, Mediterranean climate. In summer, temperatures hover around 26–28°C with long, sunny days cooled by the Atlantic breeze. Even in winter, the city remains pleasantly warm, with average highs of 18–20°C and plenty of sunshine – making it a great year-round destination for those wanting a milder Moroccan experience.
Dining in Rabat is a treat, blending Moroccan flavours with international influences. From tagines and couscous in traditional riads to contemporary cuisine in rooftop restaurants, you’ll find a wide range of options, many with sea views or garden settings. There’s something for every palate – whether you’re after a relaxed family meal or a romantic dinner for two.
Rabat’s cultural treasures are not to be missed. Explore the historic Kasbah of the Udayas with its Andalusian gardens and ocean views, wander through the charming medina, or visit the majestic Hassan Tower and Mausoleum of Mohammed V. Art lovers will enjoy the city’s museums and modern galleries, while families can relax in Rabat’s green spaces, such as the exotic gardens of Jardin d’Essais or take a stroll along the beautifully restored Bouregreg Marina.
Day trips from Rabat are easy too – the imperial city of Meknes, the ancient Roman ruins of Volubilis, and the artisan city of Fez are all within reach. Whether you’re looking to unwind, explore, or immerse yourself in Moroccan life, Rabat offers a refreshing and refined alternative to the country’s busier tourist hubs.
