Chefchaouen in February: the Weather and What Ramadan Changes
In February, Chefchaouen is cool, sometimes rainy and almost empty: the blue alleys can be photographed without waiting. It is also a season when riad heating really matters.
Chefchaouen in February means around 15 °C by day and 5 °C at night, with fairly frequent rain. The blue medina is calm and photos are easy. Ramadan is expected from 8 February: expect a slower town by day and a livelier one in the evening.

What Ramadan changes in 2027
Ramadan is expected from 8 February to about 9 March 2027; the official date follows the moon sighting. In Chefchaouen, hotels, riads and tourist sites stay open, but some cafés and restaurants close by day, and the pace slows in the afternoon before lively evenings after the fast is broken. Be discreet about eating and drinking in public by day. There is no longer a clock change: see the time in Morocco and travelling during Ramadan.
What to do in Chefchaouen in February
Stroll the medina early and climb to the Spanish Mosque for sunset on clear days. After rain, the blues look even more intense. The hike to Akchour depends on the weather: ask locally.
