Book Cheap Flights to Casablanca

Casablanca - The Blend of French and Islamic Heritage

Casablanca is the country's largest city and busiest port. It lies in the central-western part of Morocco with a population of more than 3.5 million. Casablanca has been an important city throughout the ages due to its key economic, commercial, industrial and geographical features. Today, the city is a happy clash of old and new that attracts over a million tourists every year because of its colorful markets, restaurants, clubs, cultural venues, ancient mosques and bazaars.

Having a prior look at the city’s weather is an essential part of booking Casablanca flights.
The city has a Mediterranean climate with many superb warm and sunny days. The warmest time of year begins from April to August where the weather becomes warm and mostly dry and the temperatures tend to hit 22°C sometimes in early April, then stay warm until August. Hence, this time of year is ideal for beach lovers. On the other hand, the coolest time of the year is during the winter months between December and February where the weather is quite pleasant in the evenings and the nights are cool. We suggest you visit Casablanca from late spring to October where the weather is warm and comfortable with almost no rainy days.
