Is Morocco safe for a same-sex or unmarried couple?

Same-sex relations are illegal in Morocco, public displays of affection can lead to prosecution, and dating apps carry legal and safety risks (gov.uk). Many LGBT+ travellers visit discreetly without problems, but the law is real.

Unmarried couples who are both foreign rarely have trouble booking a room; Moroccan law can stop a Moroccan and an unmarried partner from sharing a hotel room.
