Año Nuevo islámico

📣 Notas para viajeros

Morocco offers a diverse landscape ranging from the High Atlas Mountains to the Sahara Desert. Visitors can experience vibrant souks, historic mosques, and coastal towns, blending rich cultural traditions with varied scenery.

• During Ramadan, many restaurants close for lunch and the pace of life slows down.
• Respect local customs by refraining from eating or drinking in public during Ramadan.
• Alcohol is available for tourists in specific venues and supermarkets (with a passport), but consumption is restricted for locals during the holy month.
• Eid al-Fitr follows Ramadan; expect many businesses to close for about a week as people travel home.
• Public transportation may be very crowded during the Eid holiday period.
• Dress modestly in public areas, while swimwear is acceptable at hotels and beach clubs.
• Respect Islamic customs by dressing conservatively and removing shoes before entering mosques. Use your right hand for greetings and transactions, as the left is considered unhygienic. Avoid public displays of affection and be mindful of local sensitivities regarding politics (especially the monarchy and Western Sahara), religion, and national symbols. During Ramadan, it is respectful to avoid eating or drinking in public. When in doubt, a handshake followed by touching your heart with your right hand is a respectful way to greet others.
