Sidi Abderrahman islet

The Sidi Abderrahman islet connects to the mainland through an arch bridge, allowing visitors to explore its natural coastal features regardless of tide conditions.

An 18th-century hermit from Baghdad named Sidi Abderrahman settled on this island, where he lived in solitude while playing the lute to express his religious devotion.

The island contains a mausoleum dedicated to Sidi Abderrahman, which remains a significant pilgrimage site exclusively accessible to Muslim visitors seeking spiritual guidance.

Located at coordinates 33.5825°N and 7.70417°W, the islet can be reached via the arch bridge constructed in 2013, making it accessible throughout the day.

Local traditions maintain that Sidi Abderrahman possessed supernatural abilities, including walking on water and breaking curses through his healing practices on the island.
