Morocco / Best time to visit
Best time to visit Morocco
Season patterns for Morocco in plain terms — when the weather cooperates, when crowds and prices peak, and when to think twice.
The seasons
Morocco through the year
Peak season
March to May and September to October give warm days and cool nights across the imperial cities, the mountains and the desert edge.
Shoulder seasons
November to February is mild on the coast and in the south, cold at night in the desert and mountains — fine travelling with warm layers.
Low season
July and August are extremely hot inland, especially in Fes and Marrakech and on the desert fringe; the coast stays more bearable.
Festivals and dates to know
Ramadan, moving earlier each year, quiets daytime eating options in smaller towns while evenings come alive. The Fes Festival of World Sacred Music is the country's best-known cultural event.
