Raouché Rocks, also known as Pigeon Rocks, is a prominent natural landmark easily accessible along Beirut's Corniche, a flat and walkable promenade, making it suitable for all visitors including those with mobility considerations. Viewing the iconic rocks is free of charge, and while a solo or self-guided visit is typical, short boat trips offering closer views or passage through the arch are often available from local vendors for a small fee (e.g., $5-10 USD). There are no seasonal restrictions, though spring and autumn offer the most comfortable weather for a stroll; the site remains accessible year-round. A typical visit to enjoy the views, take photos, and perhaps walk a section of the Corniche can last from 30 minutes to 1-2 hours. This landmark is particularly popular at sunset and is surrounded by numerous cafes and restaurants providing excellent vantage points.
