Morocco Holidays in March

March brings the most comfortable conditions for sightseeing in the interior, though the warmest days are found in the lower valleys and sheltered towns.

• Marrakech: Warmest Places in March: Corfu's east coast comes into its own as spring arrives, with daytime temperatures often reaching the high teens Celsius and calm, sunny days that make it ideal for early-season walks along the bay at Kavos and quiet coastal lunches. Mornings can still feel fresh, so pack layers, but by midday the sun is warm enough for a swim-ready afternoon by the water. It is exactly the brief our Morocco holidays deals are built around.
• Ouarzazate: Ouarzazate lies on the southern edge of the High Atlas and tends to be warmer and drier than the northern cities in March. It is the usual starting point for trips to Ait Benhaddou, a short drive away that rewards an early start before the afternoon heat builds. The town is smaller and quieter than the big imperial cities, so it suits travellers who want sunshine without the crowds. Evenings can still turn chilly, so plan accordingly.
• Errachidia: Errachidia is a gateway town on the route towards the desert, and its inland position means March days can be noticeably warm while nights drop away. It is a practical overnight stop for those heading to the Erg Chebbi dunes, and the journey is best made in daylight to see the changing landscape. The town offers far fewer tourist facilities than the imperial cities, which suits travellers who want a simple base. We recommend booking the desert leg with a trusted operator rather than arranging it on arrival.
• Tinghir: Tinghir is a valley town close to Todra Gorge, where the sheltered setting can make March afternoons feel warmer than the surrounding plateau. The gorge walls are steep and the paths can be cool in the shade, so bring sun protection and sturdy footwear. The town is calm and unhurried, with far fewer visitors than the main cities in the same month. It works well for walkers who want warm days among dramatic scenery.
• Meknes: Meknes is an inland imperial city where March typically brings pleasant daytime temperatures and cooler nights. It is a quieter alternative to its neighbours, and the nearby Roman ruins at Volubilis are an easy half-day excursion for those staying in the area. The city has grand gates and gardens that are comfortable to explore in spring weather. Expect fewer tourist facilities than in the busiest destinations, which many visitors find a welcome change.
