We track one city in Morocco. Its mid-range shoulder-season day comes to $194, which is 30% below the median across all 68 cities in the index.
Marrakech is the anchor — pink walls, riad fountains, spice-thick souks. Accommodation is 51% of the mid-range day there, so where you sleep decides most of the budget.
Season coefficients are calibrated per city, not shared. Across Morocco the peak-to-low swing runs 97%–97%, widest in Marrakech (97%, desert winter peak pattern: low Jun–Aug at ×0.68, peak Jan–Mar, Nov–Dec at ×1.34). Summer heat empties the city and rates crater; the winter months carry both leisure arrivals and event calendars, so the swing is one of the widest we track.
