Casablanca Weather in July

July weather in Casablanca

July feels hot, bright and mostly dry in Casablanca. Afternoons reach 30°C, while evenings cool to around 20°C. Rain is rare, and long sunny days make the Hassan II Mosque and the Art Deco streets around Place Mohammed V easy to fit into your plans.

The heat is strongest in the middle of the day, so save long walks through the Old Medina for cooler hours. A seaside stroll along the Corniche is more comfortable later on, when the Atlantic breeze picks up. Don't expect a reliably warm swim: the ocean can feel cool even when the city is hot.

What's on in July

Morocco's Throne Day falls on 30 July, with public celebrations across the country. Casablanca may have local events, but don't count on a particular parade or show without checking the schedule. Jazzablanca, the city's annual music festival, sometimes takes place in summer; its dates vary, so July isn't guaranteed.

If you hate crowds, Casablanca can feel easier than Morocco's best-known tourist cities in summer. Still, school holidays bring more families and domestic visitors, especially to the Corniche. Prices can rise at popular seaside hotels compared with quieter months, though Casablanca is a business city and summer demand varies by area.

Getting around Casablanca in July

Travelling with kids? Plan a relaxed Corniche afternoon, then head indoors while the sun is strongest. For a quieter beach break, Essaouira has cooler summer weather, but it's a long trip from Casablanca.

At the Hassan II Mosque, check the guided-tour times before you go; visitors can't explore the prayer hall independently. That small bit of planning helps you avoid arriving during prayer or outside visiting hours.
