Weather in Marrakesh in November

Prime time. If you get to pick your dates, November is the one. Highs average 24.2 °C, lows 12.1 °C, and rain falls on 7 days — nothing in the month is working against you.

November ranks 6 of 12 in Marrakesh: past the worst of the year but short of January, which is the month to book if the dates are open.

Rain on 7 days, 1 of them heavy. Enough to need a plan B, not enough to need a plan around it. Nothing specialised needed — this is the month you pack for the trip rather than for the weather.

What the averages hide

The averages here are honest — no hidden extremes worth planning around. Across the twenty years measured, the hottest November day reached 33.6 °C and the coldest night fell to 2.8 °C, and the wettest single day dropped 99 mm — roughly 183% of the month's rain in one day.

This is the volatile part. November rainfall has ranged from 5 mm to 232 mm across the twenty years measured — a 227 mm spread around an average of 54 mm. The average is real but almost no individual November looks like it, so treat the figure as the middle of a wide range rather than a forecast.

Wind is light at 7.6 km/h, so the temperature on the page is close to the temperature on your skin, and humidity is unremarkable at 55%.

How November sits in the year

The month is on the way down: 6.4 °C cooler than October, with December dropping another 3 °C. The first week and the last are not the same trip.

Daylight in November

November sits at the dark end of Marrakesh's year — 10.6 hours of daylight against 14.2 at midsummer, losing 0.7 hours across the month. Sightseeing days are genuinely shorter, and an itinerary built for summer will not fit.

An inland climate

With no coast nearby, the year swings a fair way — 33.1 °C between the warmest afternoons and the coldest nights, wider than any coastal city at this latitude would manage.

How busy it gets

Peak season. Expect the highest prices of the year and to be booking well ahead.

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

November in Marrakesh versus nearby

If Marrakesh is one option among several, the nearby comparison is worth making. Agadir is close enough to be a coin toss — 2.1 °C warmer, 2 days less rain. Casablanca is close enough to be a coin toss — 2.2 °C cooler, 2 days more rain.

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