Easter 2027
Morocco Easter Tours 2027: Private Spring Trips to the Sahara
Easter falls on 28 March in 2027, right in Morocco’s best season: warm days in the desert, green valleys in the Atlas and blossoming oases. Our private Easter tours leave from Marrakech, Fes or Casablanca on your dates, but Holy Week is one of the busiest weeks of the year, so camps and riads fill early.

Why Morocco Is Perfect at Easter
Spring is Morocco at its best. In the Sahara, days are warm but not hot and nights are fresh, so the camel ride at sunset and the camp evening are comfortable. Meanwhile, the High Atlas is green, with snow on the highest peaks, and almond and fruit trees blossom in the valleys. In addition, Marrakech is pleasant for long walks in the medina. As a result, Easter is ideal for families and couples on a spring break.
| Place | Typical Easter weather |
|---|---|
| Marrakech | Around 23–26 °C by day |
| Sahara (Merzouga) | Warm days, cool nights |
| High Atlas | Fresh, snow on the peaks |
| Essaouira | Mild and windy |

Easter in Morocco: What to Expect
Easter is not a public holiday in Morocco, so shops, souks and monuments stay open, and daily life continues as usual. However, many European and American families travel during Holy Week, so riads, desert camps and popular sites are busier than in other spring weeks. In addition, Easter 2027 comes a few weeks after Ramadan, which is expected to end around 10 March 2027, depending on the moon sighting. Read our Ramadan travel guide.
