Is tap water safe to drink in Morocco?
Drink bottled or filtered water; neither gov.uk nor CDC says tap water is safe for visitors. Many people brush their teeth with tap water without trouble, but be careful with ice and washed salads in your first days.
CDC also warns against swimming in fresh water (schistosomiasis).
What travellers say goes wrong
