Best time to go
May to September is the best time to visit the coastal resorts and the north, where there is a Mediterranean climate with hot, dry summers and mild rainy winters. It can be brutally hot in inland cities such as Marrakech, Fez and Meknes at this time – the best time to head south is between October and December.
Please bear in mind that all our retreat locations are carefully selected to provide an aesthetic ambiance for you to spend time indoors comfortably, as part of your time to heal and relax. Most venues have internal areas for yoga (some have temporary customised spaces), so even if the weather is not warm outside, any yoga will be delivered indoors.
