when i was in Asilah it was the holiday period for moroccans (the start of july) and at night the men of about 18-40 years of age hung around in cafes and on the street just outside of the medina wall. Outside of this period it would probably be quiet. There was still no other foreigners however!
Dress Code: we bought a robe similar to a jeleba but a bit 'fancier' and more colourful (see pic), but i cant remember its name. people seemed to respect us for wearing these traditional garments, as they did in Fez and elsewhere.
