Tangier Tanger-tetouan-al Hoceima, Morocco Travel Guide
Pack light layers for daytime comfort, like t-shirts, light shirts, and blouses. Bring a sweater or Light jacket for cooler evenings. A light raincoat or Umbrella can be useful for occasional showers.
Warmer layers are good. Pack sweaters, long-sleeved shirts, and a medium-weight jacket or coat. A waterproof outer layer and an umbrella are advisable due to higher chances of rain. Morocco is a predominantly Muslim country. While Tangier is relatively liberal, respectful dress is appreciated, especially outside of beach areas and luxury resorts.
Comfortable Walking shoes or sturdy sandals for uneven streets of Medina and Kasbah.
Flip-flops for beach/pool. Dressier shoes for upscale establishments.
Careful organization of your documents helps avoid issues during your travels. Keep hard copies and electronic copies of all important papers.
Morocco uses 220V, 50Hz electricity (Type C and Type E plugs). A Universal travel adapter works well. Most unlocked smartphones are compatible with Morocco's GSM network. Local SIM cards are available at the airport or mobile provider stores (e.g., Maroc Telecom, Inwi, Orange). You will need your passport to register a SIM card.
Bring your standard Travel camera or rely on your Smartphone camera. Extra batteries and memory cards are always useful. Consider a discreet camera when in crowded areas. B&H Photo offers camera and electronics. Portable chargers are useful for lengthy days of sightseeing.
