Best months to meet Morocco

If you want to go to Morocco, I’ll tell you soon: the best months to know the country are between March and May, during the spring, and September and November, when the country is in the fall. You will understand why!

Morocco can be considered divided into three zones where different climates predominate, being the Mediterranean climate to the north, Atlantic to the west and the south of the country, where the Sahara is located, the climate is desert. But what does it mean?

In the hottest season of the year, which peaks in the months of July and August, the heat may be unbearable for those intending to stay in cities like Fés and Marrakech, located in the hinterland of Morocco, and for those wishing to stroll through the desert.

The temperatures at this time of year are more pleasant in the west coast region, where you can enjoy a pleasant walk, especially in the beaches, but if you want to get to know the main Moroccan sights, your trip will be heavier tiring.

In winter, from December to February, temperatures drop sharply, mainly to the north and the desert, emphasizing that the desert climate goes from one extreme to the other. It is not so bad to travel in the winter, especially if you want as your main attraction the snow, but it is good to beware of warmer clothes.

At this time of year, rainfall increases on a large scale and in regions such as the Atlas Mountains the blizzards are guaranteed. There is the most famous ski resort in North Africa, which was mentioned here in the blog. Winter is perfect for you who want to ski but will take little advantage of other attractions in the country.

That is why I indicate the “middle term” months, in the milder seasons of the year. So you can make the most of your trip through the Moroccan air.
