Marrakech in April
Marrakech made for exploring on foot.
The short answer
April is the best month to visit Marrakech.
April is one of the two primary recommendations for Marrakech. Average daily highs of 26°C and lows of 12°C give you a comfortable balance for medina walks, gardens and outdoor meals, with busier sights and less favourable prices than quieter months.
