Didn’t pack an adaptor? You can still grab one when you arrive. Still, it’s better to bring your own than risk paying too much for something unreliable.
Marrakesh is commonly combined with travel to Spain and France. Worth checking the adaptor info for each — they don’t all follow the same setup.
Sockets in Marrakesh
The plug types you’ll find in Marrakesh are Type C and E plugs and sockets.
Type C
Type C sockets have two round pins and no grounding. Unlike Type G, they take a slimmer plug without an earth pin or fuse.
Type E
Type E sockets have two round pins and a hole for the socket’s earth pin. UK Type G plugs do not fit into Type E sockets.
Do You Need a Voltage Converter?
You’ll only ever need a voltage converter if your device’s voltage doesn’t match the country’s. In Marrakesh you won’t need one — the mains voltage is roughly the same as in the UK.
Have a look at your device’s voltage label before plugging in abroad. If it says ‘100–240 V, 50/60 Hz’, there’s no need for a converter — laptops, tablets and other modern gadgets usually have this built in.
Top Travel Essentials to Take With You
Every trip feels smoother with a few clever extras. No more guessing your suitcase weight with a luggage scale, no more dead phone on the train with a power bank, and no more messy bag thanks to packing cubes. They’re small additions, but they make a big difference.
