Weather in Casablanca in October

Prime time. October is about as good as Casablanca gets. Highs average 26.8 °C, lows 18.3 °C, and rain falls on 6 days — nothing in the month is working against you.

Casablanca barely has seasons. October scores 89 out of 100 against a best of 93 in June — a gap small enough that the month you choose matters far less here than the week you choose.

Rain falls on only 6 days, so an itinerary with no wet-weather fallback is a reasonable risk. Nothing specialised needed — this is the month you pack for the trip rather than for the weather.

What the averages hide

Averages flatten a month, and this one hides a few things: 5 days top 30 °C — hot spells arrive, but they break. Across the twenty years measured, the hottest October day reached 38.2 °C and the coldest night fell to 11.5 °C, and the wettest single day dropped 50 mm — roughly 102% of the month's rain in one day.

This is the volatile part. October rainfall has ranged from 4 mm to 137 mm across the twenty years measured — a 133 mm spread around an average of 49 mm. The average is real but almost no individual October looks like it, so treat the figure as the middle of a wide range rather than a forecast.

Wind is light at 10.2 km/h, so the temperature on the page is close to the temperature on your skin, and humidity is unremarkable at 72%.

How October sits in the year

The month is on the way down: 2.3 °C cooler than September, with November dropping another 4.8 °C. The first week and the last are not the same trip.

Daylight in October

11.4 hours of daylight, losing 1 hours across the month. That is between Casablanca's extremes of 14.4 and 9.9 hours, so days are long enough not to constrain the plan.

Sea temperature

The sea sits at about 22.5 °C in October — comfortable for a proper swim. The sea peaks at 23.5 °C in August and bottoms out at 16.9 °C — water lags the air by a month or two, which is why the best swimming often comes after the best weather.

How busy it gets

Busy. Popular without being frantic; book the things you care about, improvise the rest.

Crowd levels are estimated from climate desirability and school-holiday calendars, not from visitor numbers.

October in Casablanca versus nearby

If Casablanca is one option among several, the nearby comparison is worth making. Marrakesh is the weaker option in October — 3.8 °C warmer, 2 days less rain. Fes is the weaker option in October — 2.1 °C warmer, 2 days more rain.

So: October is effectively as good as it gets here — 4 points behind June, which is inside the margin where the weather stops being the deciding factor and price starts being it.
