A little information about Moroccan weather will go a long way in ensuring a completely mesmerizing shooting experience.

The Summer season in Morocco can be hot in the peak summer months in Marrakesh, Fez, and the Saharan regions. Coastal and Atlas regions experience cool and moderate weather in this season.

Winter season in Morocco: Winters are gentle in Morocco, except in the Atlas and the Saharan regions. The higher regions of Atlas receive heavy snowfall in the winter; regions of the Sahara Desert also tend to be quite cold in winter. Cities on the Atlantic coast - Casablanca, Essaouira, and Tangier remain a little cooler in the winter as compared to the towns on the Mediterranean coasts, which are warm and intimate all year round.

Rainfall in Morocco: There is practically no rainfall in the Saharan regions; however, it does rain in the Atlantic coastal regions in the winter, with rainfall exceeding 400 mm in Casablanca and above. The rainfall gradually decreases towards the south. At Agadir, the rainfall decreases to over 200 mm in winter.
