Morocco is referred to as a cold country with a hot sun. Morocco’s unique weather patterns make it possible to find an ideal area to take a Morocco Tour year round.
Its summers are exceptionally hot and winters can be chill to the bone. Morocco’s climate greatly fluctuate sdue to the country’s geographic location between Europe, Asia, and Africa. Recommended months to take a Morocco Tour are between October and May. Spring (April and May) and Fall (September and October) are perhaps the best overall time to take a Morocco Tour. With a summer climate in the south and in the mountains, as well as on the Mediterranean and Atlantic coasts this makes touring Morocco possible in almost all season.
Winter can be perfect by day in the south, though staying overnight in the Sahara Desert on a Tour can get very cold. Seasons and weather in Morocco take on a whole new meaning as the country is divided into two climatic zones by the High Atlas Mountains. To the north of the High Atlas, the western winds from the Atlantic contribute to the cooler temperatures of the north. Whereas in the south of the High Atlas, the weather is influenced by the Sahara desert. If you are not comfortable with very hot weather, it is advisable to avoid scheduling your Morocco Tour during July through August because these are the hottest times of the year. Also, certain cities such as Marrakech may continue to be hot until the last weeks of September. If you decide to take a Morocco Tour during July and August, it’s a wonderful time to head for the coast of Agadir and Essaouira, while in the mountains there are no set rules. In preparing for a Morocco Tour, keep in mind that Morocco is separated into five regions: the Rif Mountains, the Middle Atlas, High Atlas, Anti-Atlas, and the Sahara desert.
