What to wear in Marrakech?
In Marrakech, lightweight and modest clothing is key year-round. Cover shoulders and knees in the medina out of respect. In summer, prioritize loose linen in light colours. In winter, bring layering options as evenings can be cool (5–10°C). Always pack a scarf, sunscreen and comfortable walking shoes.
Que porter à Marrakech ?
À Marrakech, privilégiez des vêtements légers et décents. Couvrez épaules et genoux dans la médina. En été, portez des vêtements amples en lin ou coton clairs. En hiver, prévoyez des couches car les soirées sont fraîches. Un foulard, de la crème solaire et de bonnes chaussures de marche sont indispensables.
Do I need to cover up in Marrakech?
In tourist areas and riads, you can dress more freely. However, in the medina (old city), traditional souks and near mosques, it is respectful and more comfortable to cover shoulders and knees. This is especially important for women. Carry a light scarf as a versatile cover-up.
