Time Difference & Jet Lag
Morocco is on GMT+1, two hours behind Riyadh (AST, GMT+3). The westbound shift is small and easy on the body.
Flying west from Riyadh, the two-hour shift is barely felt. Most travellers arrive ready to explore, and we keep the first day relaxed to ease into the rhythm of Morocco.
Best Time to Travel
For travellers from Riyadh, Morocco's spring and autumn are most comfortable. The hot Gulf summer is also a popular time to escape to Morocco's cooler Atlantic coast and the Atlas Mountains, a refreshing contrast to the desert kingdom's heat.
Visa & Entry
Saudi nationals do not currently need a visa for Morocco for stays of up to 90 days, and Morocco enjoys warm ties with the Gulf states. Entry rules can change, so confirm the latest requirements with Moroccan authorities or your airline before travelling.
