Spa culture in Morocco starts with the hammam — a centuries-old steam-and-scrub ritual built around black soap, kessa exfoliation mitt, and rassoul clay, followed by a rinse and often an argan oil massage. Traditional neighborhood hammams are single-sex, plain, and cheap; hotel and spa hammams are private, couple-friendly, and add extended massage and treatment menus. Marrakech has the densest spa scene, especially inside riads and in the Hivernage and Palmeraie districts; Casablanca, Rabat, Agadir, and Fez all have solid options too. A typical hammam-and-massage session runs sixty to one hundred and twenty minutes, with longer half-day packages layering multiple treatments. Any season works — hammams are indoors and heated year-round; late afternoon and early evening slots are the most popular. Come with hair tied back and skip lotion beforehand.
