North-West Africa is primarily characterized by a Mediterranean climate, not a Marine West Coast Climate.

The Marine West Coast climate (Köppen: Cfb) is characterized by mild summers, cool winters, and consistent precipitation throughout the year. It is typically found on the west coasts of continents between 40° and 60° latitude.

North-West Europe (e.g., UK, Ireland, coastal Norway, France) is a classic region for Marine West Coast climate. New Zealand, being islands in the mid-latitudes, also has significant areas with Marine West Coast climate. Parts of South-Eastern Australia (e.g., Tasmania, Victoria) also experience this climate type. North-West Africa (e.g., Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia) is located at lower latitudes and experiences a Mediterranean climate (Köppen: Csa/Csb), characterized by hot, dry summers and mild, wet winters, which is distinct from the year-round precipitation pattern of the Marine West Coast climate.
