Flowing out from beneath a building above the medina of Chefchaouen, the Ras el-Maa Waterfall is a series of drops and rapids fed by a local spring. The water cascades over and between large rocks and manmade edges, creating a dynamic and refreshing scene. Downstream, you might spot locals washing clothes, adding to the authentic atmosphere. Several local cafés offer a perfect vantage point to enjoy the sight and sounds of the waterfall, making it a serene and picturesque spot for visitors.
