Your November weather guide
WarmWeather in Marrakech in November
November is a good time for Marrakech if you want warm afternoons rather than reliable heat. Average daytime highs are around 22°C, but nights fall to around 8°C, so this is not a trip to pack only summer clothes for. With about 6.4 hours of sunshine a day, there is useful time for being outdoors. The catch is the contrast between daytime and evening temperatures, plus some rain: go for comfortable daytime warmth, not a guarantee of hot weather.

Warm in the afternoon, cold after dark
The daytime warmth suits travellers who want to spend time outdoors without making intense heat the focus of their plans. A light top can work in a warm afternoon, but carry a layer for cooler spells and shade. Some days are considerably warmer: the warmest 10% reach 27.6°C or more, so keep sun protection handy and leave room to slow down at midday. Evenings need a different approach. The average night low is 7.8°C, and the coldest 10% of nights reach 3.6°C or below. Pack trousers, closed shoes and a warm jacket rather than relying on a thin extra layer after dark, especially if you plan to sit outside.
Plan around daylight, with room for rain
November has about 5 rainy days, so rain is a possibility to allow for rather than a reason to rule out the trip. A compact umbrella or light waterproof gives you flexibility, and it helps not to make every day's plans depend on dry weather. There are about 10.4 hours of daylight, with 6.4 hours of sunshine on average: enough for outdoor time, but not the long evenings of a summer holiday. Put your main outdoor plans into the daylight hours and keep an indoor alternative available. November suits a flexible city break; it is less convincing if your main aim is uninterrupted sunshine and warmth from breakfast until bedtime.
