Climate in Morocco

Summer temperatures are high from June to early September. Most of the desert camps in the south are closed during the summer, as the heat can be unbearable. Although Marrakech is usually the first stop for culture travelers, Casablanca, Morocco’s largest city, and Rabat, the capital, use their coastal positions and beaches, which are much cooler, to draw in huge numbers every year.

In general, the north and northwest have more of a Mediterranean climate. Central or inland Morocco is usually always warm and arid with temperatures often reaching into the high 90s. This climate feeds into the west Saharan coast in the southwest with temperatures ranging around 70-80° F all year round.

What to Pack

When is comes to dressing, remember that Morocco is still a predominantly Islamic country even if it has a more relaxed atmosphere than some of its neighbors. This means that as a foreigner you are not expected to adopt the local dress but doing so tends to show more respect. Think about where you are and where you are traveling to before dressing. If it is a central city like Casablanca or Marrakesh, western clothing is perfectly fine as long as it is smart but of course, if you journey into the desert or up into the highlands or a faraway rural village, you may need to reconsider your choice of apparel.
