Beach-lovers can always head to one of many pristine beaches while several beautiful parks and gardens will keep nature-lovers happy.
Changing of Royal Guard: at the Royal Palace on Friday mornings is a great spectacle if you have some time to spare. It’s not exactly as amazing as the one in London but it’s still worth watching, especially for children.
Swimming: there are several beaches in Rabat so you can swim, relax in the sun or just watching people. The beaches to the south of Rabat are, however, much nicer and less crowded. If time permits, you can also visit Temara, a lovely seaside town not far from Rabat.
Potter’s Village: is popular among visitors in Rabat. This real, enchanting village is dedicated to pottery. You will have fun asking the skilled craftsmen to create anything for you, and they will do it with an incredible speed.
Dining: if you have never tried authentic Moroccan food, here’s your chance. A number of local restaurants can be found around the medina, while French eateries are also aplenty. There are a few Oriental restaurants in the city centre as well.
Walking Tour: with most tourist spots located in close proximity, organising a walking tour with your friends and family is a good way to explore Rabat at your own pace. Your starting point might be the medina, otherwise known as the old town, where you can see how locals lead their lives or make a stop at the bazaar.
