Best time to visit
With a sub-tropical climate and year-round sunshine, the best time to visit Morocco is entirely up to you. In the summer months of July and August, temperatures in Marrakech can soar to around 40°C, so it might be a good time for a waterpark holiday. During the same period, coastal areas such as Agadir benefit from cooling Atlantic breezes, but it’s still a fantastic time to enjoy activities in the ocean. Springtime, from March to May, and the autumn months of September to October also offer great conditions for a beach holiday, with temperatures of around 21°C to 25°C. If you’re planning a spa escape, golfing getaway or cultural adventure, a winter sun break may be the best option. Temperatures of around 12°C provide respite from the cold at home, but it’s cool enough for active ventures. November is the wettest month in Morocco, with an average of 40.6mm of rain.
