Plage Chaabi (Oriental) is located outside the Dar El Kebdani settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.

The beach stretches on the sunny coast

User reviews

"I must say, this beach in Morocco is the best I've ever been to. It has a unique rule where women can enjoy the beach from 8 a.m to 2 p.m, and then men can take over from 2 p.m until 8 p.m. While it may not be the cleanest beach out there, it's definitely worth a visit."

Hassan

It's the perfect spot for anyone looking to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life and immerse themselves in the tranquil beauty of nature. With no crowds to contend with, you can..."

Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Plage Chaabi (Oriental) is not fully equipped for sunbathing. However, if you are not picky and are willing to spread out on a towel, you can sunbathe here as well. The natural shade will allow you to hide from the scorching sun in the peak of its activity. Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all Plage Chaabi (Oriental) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun. So our recommendation is that you can sunbathe comfortably on the Plage Chaabi for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing. If you want to explore the photos of this beach - they are above on the page.
