Times follow the method of the Ministry of Habous and Islamic Affairs (Fajr 19°, Isha 17°; Chourouq −3, Dhuhr +5, Maghrib +5 minutes).

Essaouira does not change its clocks; times stay on Africa/Casablanca all year. How times are calculated
Essaouira, the Sun and the clock
Essaouira is in Marrakesh-Safi and has about 85,000 people. Essaouira lies 24.8° west of the 15° E meridian that its time zone is based on. The Sun therefore reaches its highest point about 99 minutes after 12:00 on average, around 13:39, and Dhuhr comes later than the clock suggests.
The Sun never stands straight overhead in Essaouira: at Dhuhr it climbs to about 82° above the horizon in June and only 35° in December, so noon shadows are much longer in December. Days in Essaouira range from 10h 5m in December to 14h 12m in June, a difference of 4h 7m, and Fajr, Maghrib and Isha shift with them.
Maghrib time Essaouira compared with nearby cities
Prayer times shift with longitude: about 4 minutes for every degree east or west. Here is how today's Fajr and Maghrib in nearby places compare with Essaouira, calculated with the same method.
| City | Distance | Fajr | Maghrib | Maghrib vs Essaouira |
