13 to 26 °C · about 3 rainy days a month
Highs rise from about 24 degrees in March to 29 in May, with a few rain days in March and April. It is a good time to walk the medina and the gardens.
What to wear: Bring light layers, since mornings are cool, and shoes you can walk in on uneven stone.
20 to 36 °C · about 1 rainy days a month
Afternoons reach 34 to 38 degrees from June to August with almost no rain, and the nights stay around 18 to 21 degrees. Do the sights in the morning and rest in the early afternoon.
What to wear: Wear light, loose clothes that cover shoulders and knees, a hat and sunscreen, and carry water.
15 to 28 °C · about 3 rainy days a month

7 to 20 °C · about 4 rainy days a month
Days are around 19 to 21 degrees and nights near 6 to 8 degrees, with three to four rain days a month. The day is shorter, so start early.
What to wear: Wear a warm jacket for mornings and evenings, and layers for the afternoon.
Rain is not frequent, with at most five rain days in any month, but it makes the lanes of the medina muddy and slippery. The Marrakech Museum, the Ben Youssef Madrasa, the Bahia Palace and the Saint Laurent museum are partly or fully indoors, and the covered souks help too. Keep the gardens and the ruins for a dry day.
Summer afternoons are very hot and the ruins and gardens give little shade, so plan outdoor sights for the morning and the hours after sunset. Museums and covered souks work as breaks in the middle of the day. Carry water and wear a hat.
