What Works Well

  • Bab Agrou (Porte de Agrou) is comfortable to visit in 19.1°C daytime weather.
  • Cité des Arts gives a reliable indoor stop on one of March’s 9 rainy days.
  • Bab Shaaba and Bab Alkhadid are easier to cover with 10.3 daylight hours than in February.

What Needs Planning

  • 78.1 mm of rain across 9 days can interrupt a gate-to-gate walk through Bab Agrou and Bab Shaaba.
  • 13.3°C nights cool the waterfront down after sunset, so late walks feel shorter.
  • March stays behind April’s warmer conditions, so the city can still feel less settled for long outdoor plans.

How The Month Feels

March gives Safi a working rhythm: gates, short walks, and pauses at Cité des Arts between showers. Bab Agrou (Porte de Agrou) and Bab Shaaba feel active without being rushed.

What To Lock In Early

Reserve Cité des Arts first, then keep Bab Agrou and Bab Alkhadid open for the clearest day. You can leave the exact walking order loose and still cover the main sights well.

How to do it

A few things worth planning ahead

01

Plan cue

Book your Cité des Arts visit early in the trip so a rainy day has a ready indoor option.

02

Plan cue

Plan a morning route from Bab Agrou (Porte de Agrou) to Bab Shaaba, when the 10.3 hours of sun give the best walking window.

03

Plan cue

Leave one afternoon open for Bab Alkhadid, since March weather still changes faster than it does in April.

Practical trip tips

Pack for 9 rainy days with a compact umbrella for gate walks, not just a day bag.
Use the 13.3°C nights to choose an early dinner near the center, then head back before the temperature drops further.
If you want a museum break, keep Cité des Arts for the wettest day rather than saving it for the end.
