Morocco is a year-round destination, but the best time depends on where you’re going.
Spring (March–May)
The best overall season: warm days, green landscapes and comfortable desert temperatures.
Autumn (September–November)
Another excellent window — pleasant weather across cities, mountains and the Sahara.
Summer (June–August)
Hot inland and in the desert, but great for the cooler Atlantic coast like Essaouira.
Winter (December–February)
Cool, clear days, snow on the Atlas peaks and crisp desert nights — beautiful and quieter, just pack warm layers.
Best time for the desert
For Merzouga and Zagora, aim for spring or autumn for the most comfortable days and nights. Browse our Sahara tours to start planning.
