Perched at the edge of the Kasbah of the Udayas, Viewpoint Oudayas is one of Rabat's most captivating locations. This UNESCO World Heritage site dates back to the 12th century and provides a unique vantage point where the Bou Regreg river meets the Atlantic Ocean. Visitors reach the viewpoint by wandering through a labyrinth of narrow, flower-lined alleys and striking white-and-blue buildings that many compare to a Mediterranean village. Once at the top, you can enjoy views of the ancient city walls, the beaches of Salé, and the vast ocean horizon. It is a peaceful spot equipped with benches, perfect for a late afternoon stroll or watching the sunset. While the area is free to explore, it remains a vibrant hub of local culture and history.
Viewpoint Oudayas is highly praised for its spectacular panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean, the river, and the neighboring city of Salé. Visitors frequently mention the 'Santorini vibe' of the surrounding Kasbah, characterized by its striking blue-and-white buildings and narrow, winding alleys. The site is a UNESCO World Heritage location, and reviewers appreciate that it is free to enter and explore at leisure. Many recommend visiting in the late afternoon to enjoy the sunset from the benches provided at the top. However, a common piece of advice among reviewers is to be wary of unofficial local guides who may offer tours and later demand payment. Overall, it is considered a must-see landmark in Rabat for its blend of historical architecture and scenic coastal beauty.
