Best eSIM for Morocco: Coverage, Speed & Setup Guide

Why Travelers Prefer eSIMs in Morocco

Whether you’re exploring the bustling streets of Marrakesh, watching the sunset over the Sahara, or surfing in Agadir, having a stable internet connection is essential. Morocco is a top travel destination in 2025 — and travelers are increasingly choosing eSIMs over traditional SIM cards.

Unlike physical SIM cards that require visiting local stores and showing identification, an eSIM lets you connect instantly. You simply scan a QR code, and your mobile data plan becomes active within minutes. No more waiting, no more paperwork.

Roafly’s Morocco eSIM connects directly to Orange Morocco, one of the strongest and most reliable mobile networks in the country. The plan is data-only, which means it does not include a phone number — but it allows fast and secure 4G/5G internet access for apps like WhatsApp, Instagram, Maps, and more.

This makes Roafly a perfect companion for both short city breaks and long desert adventures.

 

 

Coverage and Network Performance in Morocco

Roafly’s Morocco eSIM operates through Orange Morocco, which offers excellent coverage across the country’s main cities and tourist regions.
Here’s what travelers typically experience:

• Cities (Marrakesh, Casablanca, Rabat, Agadir): Strong 4G and growing 5G coverage. You can expect stable speeds for video calls, social media, and GPS navigation.

• Coastal towns (Essaouira, Taghazout): Mostly 4G coverage with minimal dropouts.

• Rural & Desert areas (Atlas Mountains, Merzouga): Speeds may drop to 3G, but connection remains usable for messaging and maps.

If your phone shows “No Service” or switches between 3G and 4G, it’s often related to temporary tower availability or roaming setup. You can follow this simple guide to restore your connection:

By default, Roafly’s eSIM automatically connects to the best available Orange Morocco signal. Still, if you prefer manual control, you can manually select the Orange network in your mobile settings for optimal stability.

 

 

Why Choose Roafly Morocco eSIM Over Local SIM Cards

Most Moroccan airports and city centers sell physical SIM cards, but they require presenting your passport and often charge tourists higher prices. In contrast, Roafly eSIM plans can be purchased and installed before you travel — or even while you’re boarding your flight.

 

Here’s why travelers prefer Roafly:

• Instant activation — start using data the moment you land.

• No ID or physical SIM swap needed.

• Affordable data packages — pay only for what you need.

• Full compatibility with iPhones, Samsung, Google Pixel, and other eSIM-enabled devices.

• Secure connectivity using Morocco’s top-tier Orange network.

How to Install and Activate Your eSIM in Morocco

One of the biggest advantages of Roafly is how simple it is to set up your eSIM. Whether you’re already in Morocco or still at the airport, activation takes only a few minutes.

 

Roafly supports three installation methods, giving you flexibility based on your phone and preference:

1. Direct Installation (Recommended for iPhone users)
   You’ll receive a notification link after purchase — just tap “Install eSIM” and it will automatically configure the plan on your device. No QR code required.

2. QR Code Installation
   Scan the QR code included in your Roafly confirmation email. Follow your device’s prompts to add the data plan. Once installed, turn on Mobile Data and Data Roaming.

3. Manual Installation
   If you can’t scan the QR code, you can manually enter the activation code and SM-DP+ address from your Roafly account or confirmation email.

 

Full details for all methods are available here:

Once the eSIM is installed, Roafly automatically connects to Orange Morocco. You’ll see “Roafly” or “Orange” in your status bar once data is live. If your phone doesn’t immediately connect, toggle Airplane Mode ON/OFF once — this refreshes the signal.

 

 

Common Issues and Quick Fixes

Even though Roafly eSIMs are designed for plug-and-play use, a few travelers experience temporary issues after landing. Here are the most common cases and how to fix them quickly:

 

🟡 Issue 1: “No Service” after arrival

This usually means your phone hasn’t yet registered on the local Orange Morocco network.
Try the following steps:

• Go to Settings → Mobile Data → Network Selection, and choose Orange Morocco manually.

• Ensure Data Roaming is turned ON.

• Restart your phone if needed.

 

If the problem persists, follow the full troubleshooting steps here:

🟡 Issue 2: “3G only” or slow connection

This usually happens in rural or desert areas where 4G coverage is limited.
Try switching between automatic and manual network selection. If you’re near major cities or coastal regions, speeds should return to 4G quickly.

 

 

🟡 Issue 3: Data not working after installation

• Double-check that the eSIM plan is active under “Mobile Data.”

• Verify APN settings — they should be filled automatically, but if blank, set APN to internet.

• Reboot your phone.

 

 

🟢 Tip: Don’t delete your eSIM unless support tells you to

Removing the eSIM profile may require a new QR code and reactivation.
If you’re unsure, contact Roafly support before taking any step.

Roafly’s system is built to make travel connectivity stress-free. The Morocco eSIM is data-only, so even without a local number, you can stay fully connected on WhatsApp, iMessage, Telegram, and other apps.

If you’re moving between nearby countries (like Egypt or Spain), you can simply buy a new eSIM in seconds — no need to change SIM trays or visit a store.

 

 

How Much Data Do You Need in Morocco?

Choosing the right eSIM plan depends on how long you’re staying and how you use your phone.

Here’s a quick reference to help you estimate:

 

Average traveler data consumption in Morocco is around 4–5 GB per week. Apps like Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok use roughly 1 GB of data per hour of video. So if you’re planning to share stories or upload travel reels, a 10 GB plan will give you a comfortable margin.

Roafly offers multiple Morocco eSIM options starting from just a few dollars — perfect whether you’re on a weekend getaway or a month-long journey.
