Best Time to Visit Morocco
Morocco is a year round destination, although its distinct regions of coast, mountains and desert means that there are varying climates across the country.
Morocco Seasons
The Kingdom of Morocco enjoys a climate of Mediterranean type where the winter is generally mild and the summer is warm. There are, however, some regional varieties that must be taking into consideration while planning a visit to the country. In winter, for example, the temperature is mild in Marrakech, but in the south and in the High Atlas, it can go down quickly, especially at night.This makes the red city a favorite of the foreign travelers looking to evade the blistering-cold European and north american winter.
The rainy season in the other hand is relatively short in Morocco. It begins in November and ends in January - during this period high mountains picks are filled with snow, which allows locals and tourists alike to practice winter sport in resort like Oukaïmden located near the city of Marrakech. Rain is more abundant in the Rif and in the high-Atlas Mountains than anywhere else in the country, allowing for the inception of breath taking natural views all over theses regions..
Spring and autumn, that is from April to May and September to October, are the best seasons to discover Morocco and all its beauty, while enjoying a very moderate temperature.
