Create an itinerary including Pigeon Rocks in Raouche
A Beirut landmark adorning the former 10-pound banknote, Pigeon Rocks in Raouche stand in a bay like giant sentinels. Today, these curious offshore limestone arches are the focal point of a popular hangout spot. A leisurely stroll along the promenade will take you straight to the rocks, which you can observe from a cliff. You can also descend the cliffs for a view from the sea, exploring inlets and caves in the cliff. Cliffside cafes overlooking the bay and restaurants in the area attract tourists and locals alike, while small boat rides bring you around the rocks during summer. To visit Pigeon Rocks in Raouche and other attractions in Beirut, use our Beirut day trip website.

  • Lovely to look at, but don't need much time. Can check it out during a drive by when one is in the area. Sadly, one sees plenty of trash in the sea around it.

  • The Pidgeon rock is a very iconic natural monument. The view is great, and the numerous cafes with a great view of it make it perfect to visit any time of the year.

  • Loved the scenery, especially the picturesque sunset! Restaurants on the edge of the beach overlook the natural beauty and offer amazing Lebanese cuisine.
  • Great scenery and icons of Beirut, short hike can get you to see it from the other side as well. Or you can just watch it from the street.
  • The most famous spot for Beirut sightseeing. Nice to visit the spot twice, at the morning and at the night. It is kinda near to el hamra, few minutes a walk.
  • i live right infront of the rock but the veiw never gets old at sunset when there's a plane flying over i never forget to capture its truly an extraordinary sight i recommend to anyone visiting Lebanon In Beirut
  • Mind-blowingly beautiful. Gorgeous view any time of the day to bring friends, family, loved ones, and kids. Walk along the sea side or walk along the beach. Watch the beautiful view and take a couple of photos too.
