Grab a tea or coffee on the top terrace of Café Arabe. The views over the medina are fantastic and it’s a perfect way to start the afternoon.
18:20
Walk down to sky mabrouka for a light snack or drink in their courtyard. It is close by and open late, so you can linger as the light begins to change.

Position yourself right besides Djemaa El-Fna to watch the Koutoubia Mosque. At sunset, the minaret is beautifully lit by the fading golden light.

End the evening at Henna Cafe. It is a pretty little spot with an orange sign where you can have a simple lunch with dessert or just a sandwich as the night settles in.
Local tip
Café Arabe has three floors, but the top terrace is the one to aim for. Henna Cafe closes at 20:00, so head there before it gets dark if you want to sit inside.
