When is the Best Time to Visit Morocco?

The timing of your trip is crucial to fully enjoy your stay in Morocco. Whether you’re planning on visiting the bustling souks of Marrakech, hiking in the Atlas Mountains, or wanting to stargaze in the Sahara Desert, swimming in the best seasons will help you align your plans the ideal way.


Best Time to Visit Morocco for Ideal Weather
 

Spring (March to May) – Perfect for Exploration

Spring is one of the Best seasons to visit Morocco. The average temperature is very warm but not too high, making it ideal for sightseeing. Cities like Marrakech and Fez have stunning sights to explore, and if landscapes are what interests you, the High Atlas Mountains needs to be on your list for trekking.   

Autumn (September to November) – Comfortable and Scenic

Are you planning to travel to Morocco during Autumn? This is considered one of the best seasons to go as the summer heat transitions into beautiful golden leaves, allowing you to experience a little more peace and comfort while traveling. Autumn is ideal for stargazing in the Sahara Desert, camel trekking, visiting imperial cities, or any kind of traveling!
 

Ideal Timing to Tour the Sahara Desert

From October to April is the best time to take a Sahara Desert tour. During the summer (June to August), the heat can be too intense, making it difficult to undertake activities during the day. But the summer nights in the desert are enchanting due to the cool winds and starry skies.
 

Best Tourism Months for Coastal Areas

For travelers holidaying in Essouira, Agadir, or Taghazout, summer (June to August) is the best time. The coastal areas stay breezy and pleasant, offering a perfect escape from the inland heat.



When to Avoid Traveling to Morocco
 

While Morocco is a year-round destination, July and August can be scorching, especially in cities like Marrakech and Fez. If you can handle the heat, you’ll find fewer crowds and great deals on accommodations.
 

Travel Tips for Visiting Morocco

 
  • Book in advance if visiting during peak seasons (spring and autumn), as accommodations and tours fill up quickly.
