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.

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.

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.
