In early September 2026, we went to Riffiine beach several times (on the 7th, 8th and 9th), on the Mediterranean coast north of Tétouan, between M'diq and Fnideq. It's a family beach, very quiet, ideal for young children. The sea can be calm there, or there can be waves.

- Riffiine beach footbridge, Fnideq · Open in Maps
From the hillside, a long flight of steps lined with low stone walls leads down to a footbridge over the coast road. On the other side is the beach.
A quiet family beach
The sand stretches for nearly 4 km. By the footbridge, a promenade lined with palm trees and lanterns runs alongside it, and the beach is very quiet: a family beach, ideal for young children.
“One of the most beautiful beaches, in our view. What sets it apart most is that it's a family beach, very quiet, very pleasant for families, and ideal for young children.”
Calm sea or waves
The sea can be calm there, or there can be waves. With young children, it's best to check the state of the sea when you arrive.
Late in the day, from the footbridge, you can see the beach, the promenade and, in the distance, the mountains.
