Casablanca Cannabis & CBD Guide

Casablanca: Quick Overview

Casablanca is Morocco’s economic capital, a sprawling port metropolis of over four million people that is the country’s commercial, financial, and cultural hub. Less associated with tourist cannabis culture than Marrakech or the Rif Mountain towns, Casablanca nonetheless has a robust and growing cannabis scene shaped by its large young population, its cosmopolitan cafe culture, and its proximity to the Atlantic coast. Traditional kif and Rif Mountain hash are part of the city’s underground social fabric, while the 2023 Law 13-21 has opened the door to a legal CBD and medical cannabis sector centred on licensed Moroccan cultivators.

For tourists, Casablanca’s cannabis experience is most accessible in the coastal Corniche strip, the upscale Anfa and Maarif neighbourhoods, and the old Medina. The venues listed here range from traditional kif social clubs and souk-style hash vendors to modern CBD wellness boutiques serving the city’s large business-travel and expat communities. As with all of Morocco, personal discretion is essential. Public consumption is not recommended, and while the 2023 law has shifted the legal landscape, enforcement remains context-dependent.

Cannabis Culture & Legal Context in Morocco

Morocco’s Rif Mountains are the historic heartland of global kif and hashish production. The 2023 Law 13-21 opened a licensed medical and industrial cannabis sector for the first time. Traditional hash culture remains deeply embedded in local life across the medinas and riads of Marrakech, Casablanca, and the Atlantic coast. Tourists generally experience a permissive atmosphere in medina zones, though public consumption and trafficking carry real legal risk.
