Casablanca Weather in February

February weather

Casablanca feels mild in February, not properly warm. Afternoons reach about 19°C, while evenings can dip to 11°C. Rain comes on around eight days, so showers may interrupt a walk, but they rarely rule out the whole day. The air can feel damp, especially near the Atlantic.

With nearly seven hours of sun a day, you can still enjoy the Hassan II Mosque, browse the Art Deco streets around Place Mohammed V, or take a stroll along the Corniche when skies clear. Don't count on a full beach day: the sea and weather can feel chilly. Keep indoor stops, such as the Villa des Arts, in mind for rainy spells.

Events and local life

February doesn't have a major fixed festival that draws visitors to Casablanca. Ramadan follows the lunar calendar, so it can fall in February in some years, but not every year. If your visit overlaps, expect changed opening hours and quieter daytime cafés, with more activity after sunset.

If you hate crowds, February is a comfortable time for the mosque and central sights. It's winter, outside the busy summer holiday period, so the city generally feels less packed than in peak summer. Prices can also be gentler than during busier months, though Casablanca is a working city and doesn't empty out.

A useful Casablanca tip

Make the Hassan II Mosque your first big outing on a clear day. Its oceanfront setting is especially exposed to wind and rain, and the view is less striking under grey skies. Guided visits are the way to see the interior, so check the day's tour times before heading over.

Travelling with kids? Pair the mosque with a short Corniche walk, then duck into a café in nearby Ain Diab if the weather turns. For dinner, try chicken pastilla, a savoury pie with a hint of sweetness, at a local restaurant in the city centre. In February, a warm meal can feel far better than lingering by the water.
