Packing for Morocco can be tricky. We've compiled the ultimate packing list to ensure you're prepared for the desert heat, mountain chills, and conservative culture.

What to Pack for Your Moroccan Adventure

Packing for Morocco requires some thought, as you'll likely encounter a range of climates and cultural norms. Here is a guide to help you pack smart.

Clothing

  • Modesty is Key: Morocco is a conservative Muslim country. Both men and women should pack loose-fitting clothing that covers the shoulders and knees. This is respectful and also practical for sun protection.
  • Layers are Your Best Friend: Temperatures can vary drastically from day to night, especially in the desert. Pack layers like t-shirts, long-sleeved shirts, a fleece or sweater, and a light jacket.
  • A Scarf or Shawl: Incredibly versatile for women. It can be used to cover your head when entering a mosque, for extra warmth in the evening, or as a dust shield in the desert.

Footwear

  • Comfortable Walking Shoes: You'll be doing a lot of walking on uneven surfaces in the medinas.
  • Sandals or Flip-flops: For relaxing at your riad.

Essentials

  • Sun Protection: A wide-brimmed hat, sunglasses, and high-SPF sunscreen are non-negotiable.
  • Medication: A basic first-aid kit with pain relievers, band-aids, and any personal medications.
  • Power Bank: To keep your devices charged on long travel days.
