You can choose when to visit Morocco depending on your interests, for it will offer you plenty of events and activities at different times of the year.
Coastal areas in winter (November to February) with mild temperatures are perfect for enjoying your leisure holiday. In the summer (July to August), you can still have fun in Morocco because it will not be unbearably hot. You can plan some water sports or a short excursion to the Atlas Mountains. However, it is not a perfect time to hike or do outdoor exploration during the hot summer. You can arrange outdoor activities in the morning and afternoon to avoid the heat.

- Camping Under the Stars in the Sahara Desert
A journey to Morocco is not considered complete until it includes at least one excursion to the Sahara Desert. It must be an once-in-a-lifetime experience that you will never forget to spend the night in a traditional Bedouin camp. You may take a camel ride to discover the unending desert and see the fantastic dunes at dawn and sunset. As night comes, you may enjoy a freshly prepared supper with a friendly Bedouin family under a blanket of stars.

You'll have a once-in-a-lifetime experience thanks to Marrakech's traditional arts and cuisine and the fantastic entertainment options available. One of the most well-known places to visit is Jemaa el Fnaa Square, where you can find various Moroccan cuisine and entertainment. Marrakech Medina is home to several souks, or traditional Moroccan marketplaces, from which visitors may bring home unique keepsakes. After a day of exciting sightseeing, you may have a cup of mint tea in a local pub or restaurant
- Take a Moroccan Cooking Class
Moroccan cuisine is distinct and well-known all over the globe. Try some of these tasty treats at one of the many restaurants or food stands, and then join up for a cooking lesson so you can master the art at home. The souks are where you can get all the ingredients for traditional Moroccan dishes. And most guesthouses and riads will provide cooking courses where they will take you shopping for the ingredients and show you how to make them traditionally. And enjoy your finished dishes, which can be the best paid off for your half-day effort.
- Stroll Around Chefchaouen
Venturing into the rugged Rif mountains, you'll find the small town of Chechaouen, one of the most captivating Moroccan cities. Its picturesque mountain backdrop provides a dramatic backdrop for the blue buildings and cobblestone streets that have made it renowned. Strolling slowly around the streets, discover the local handicraft markets and sidewalk cafés. Or hike atop the Spanish Mosque for a stunning panorama view at sunset.
- Hike High Atlas Mountains
The High Atlas is a great place to get away from the city and enjoy the fresh air and beautiful scenery of the mountains. Imlil, a mountain town within an hour's drive from Marrakesh, is the starting point for most walks in the area. April and May have the most favorable weather and the least amount of precipitation, making them ideal months for hiking. Hiking around the mountain's base is enjoyable in its own right if you're not up for the climb to the peak.
