Weather Overview for Casablanca

Casablanca benefits from a mild climate throughout the year. The wet season extends from November to March; however, most days throughout the winter months remain dry.

Winters in Casablanca can at times be cold but summers are generally very pleasing. However, with benefits of its proximity to the Atlantic and Mediterranean Seas the climate of this region is very moderate all year round.

Summer in Casablanca is hospitable and mild and this when the town sees its most visitors. Winter is commonly be cool and rainy but accommodation and flights are at their cheapest so this is also a common season for tourists.

The months from October to April will be the most favourable time to visit as this is when the region undergoes its best weather. With days being pleasantly warm and the nights lusciously cool. Temperatures throughout the day will typically stay around 30°C and will drop to approximately 15°C at night.

Casablanca is relatively hot but because of its location on the coast when compared with neighbouring regions inland, that are largely desert, its climate can be viewed as relatively temperate. The rainy season lasts from November to April although even throughout this period of time the amount of rainfall is still very minimal.

The summer months between July and September are generally the hottest of the year, during which time daily high temperatures will commonly climb to above 33°C.  The climate however is very dried out, therefore relatively humidity is almost non-existent. The evenings and nights during these summer months will cool down enough for comfortable sleeping temperatures.

The coolest time of the year is during the winter months of December through February, throughout which time the daily high temperatures will reach roughly 16°C.  During these months, the evening and night temperatures will drop down to approximately 12°C or 13°C. The winter months are also months seeing highest humidity.  But even during this time, it will only rain one out of five days on average.  The driest months of the year are June, July and August, during which time it will rarely, if ever rain. 

The climate, geography, and history of Casablanca are closer to the Mediterranean than to Africa. The town is a suitable departure point for much of north or western Morocco, but is absolutely recommended as an ideal holiday destination all year round.
