Legislation: Smoking marijuana, or “kif” is illegal in the Kingdom of Morocco and the penalty for being caught with it is ten years in prison. However, tourists are frequently let off with only a fine due to Morocco’s need for both the tourism dollars and the $US7 billion dollars that makes kif their largest source of foreign currency.
Law enforcement: If you don’t smoke openly in public (i.e. on the beach), you won’t have any problems.
Where to buy marijuana: Morocco has very high unemployment and, as a result, there are always bored young men wandering around who see themselves as “guides” but are frequently little more than dealers. If you’re approached by someone offering his services, he can almost certainly sort you out or point you in the direction of someone who can, even if he doesn’t initially mention hash.
Marijuana prices: $1-2 a gram. More expensive than the Rif as the dealers have to bribe the police to get their shipments down from the mountains (as they will be keen to tell you).
Marijuana brands: Most of what is available down in the south of morocco is cheap, faily low quality hash. It is frequently adulterated with henna and it’s thereofre worth pressing your dealer for some of the better stuff that he ineviitably keeps and smokes himself. At worst, you are going to buy a lump of hash that British smokers will be familiar with as “soapbar”. At best, there’s some nice stuff down here, though not usually of the quality you find in the Rif mountains.
More information: Essaouira is a sea-side town that has recently begun to transform itself from faded hippy destination to a “Moroccan riviera town”. There are increasing numbers of middle class, middle aged Europeans here. It is also the wind-surfing capital of Morocco with constant wind and relatively shetered, peaceful seas. Hendrix, Cat Stevens, Orson Welles and many others have lived here in the past. There is now a huge and, by all accounts, quite spectacular festival of Moroccan music here every year. Despite its gentrification, it’ still a very nice place.
Taghazoute is just down the coast from Essaouira, towards Agadir. It is Morocco’s board surfing capital and also plays host to large numbers of caravanners from Europe who over-winter here. It’s a pleasant enough place, though a bit dull if you’re not into surfing, drinking cheap spirits and wife swopping! The surfing community guarantees a good supply of hash and other drugs. We saw some poor quality opium here.

Legislation: Bonaire is in the Dutch Carribean, however Dutch law doesn’t apply and marijuana is considered illegal.
Law enforcement: Very few cops on the island, conjugated with upper-middle class tourism, means that tourists won’t be bothered with that
Where to buy marijuana: One of the very rare places in the Caribbean where people don’t propose you. However, marijuana is easily available, you just have to look for it. To get some, try to find teenagers fitting the profile hanging around Karel/ KFC/ Kaya Grandi and just ask them. You will have to drive with them into one of the suburbs to a dealer’s house. It is usually pretty safe, especially if you do it during the day. An other option is to directly cruise around with your vehicle in one of the suburbs (Tera Kora or Antriol for instance) and ask teenagers around,
Marijuana prices: Expensive: one small bag for 10$
Marijuana brands: Jamaican usually
More information: Bonaire is not your typical Caribbean island, it is almost deserted and you can forget the white sand beaches except on the inhabited Klein Bonaire. However, it is home to one of the best activities to do when you are stoned: snorkeling. It has the most protected reefs in the Caribbean and the fish life is amazing. And all sites are accessible from the shore, so you just smoke your stuff and jump into the water. Great experience !

Legislation: The “Codigo Penal” law at “Articulo 195Bis” specify a max. of 250Grams to be considered personal consuming and not to be procecuted. And 5Grams of Hash. But many local laws are in conflict with this federal law. So many states and city’s are more “illegal” than others.
Law Enforcement: If you are ever caught smoking or carrying grass, do not panic, the police in Mexico city will most surely be willing to come to an arrangement, the only difference in the amount of time they will harass you, and the amount of money they will ask for, this depends on how you treat them. I always recommend being POLITE, CALM, and accepting you mistake and asking them for to help you, they will usually tell you that in order to help you, you must help them in return, meaning they will set a price on your liberty that is always at least double of what you should actually pay, so be clever and talk them in to charging less money, specially if you are tourist. Locals like me, usually pay between 15-30 usd, foreigners may have to pay double. Remember always that even if you are taking you police headquarters, you will end up being released due to the fact that if you are only carrying one kind of drug, and in small amounts, it is not considered a criminal offense.
Where to buy marijuana in Mexico City: Go to Coyoacan, to the big street market on the main squre.
There are lot’s of hippies selling clothes, pipes, etc. Ask around the ones that sell pipes.
and also: “As a tourist you will most certainly pay a higher price for your weed, and if you are looking for a easy place to buy a small amount, even if at higher prices (20gr = 20-30usd), try the going to the Zona Rosa, and look for a street called Amberes, most of the guys who will wash cars or take care of them (not offical valets), sell small amounts of pot, in my experience they are only around from 5 to 11pm.
Or try Xochimilco, if you are visting this area, ask the locals for a place called Embarcadero de belem, and then ask of the little chapel that is located nearby (1-2 streets away), look for guys that are lurking around selling pot, they will most surely come and offer, prices are good considering the nice quality of the weed, 30grs cost 15USD.”
Mexico city marijuana Prices: 6 to 10 USD for a 50 to 100Gram Pack. $100USD for a Kilo.
and also: “I got 10gs for 150 pesos in 10 minutes.”
Mexico city marijuana Brands: Taxco Guerrero, Chiapas, And Many other.
More information: Making friends with young local people is not hard at all, and there is a big chance of being able to meet other smokers by doing so, do not be afraid, middle class and low class youngsters, are very friendly, and usually have good information and tips as to where to buy your grass.
Smoking tolerance level [1= very illegal 5=virtually legal]: 5
Legislation: As of recently the Italian Government passed a law giving out harsh penalities for possesion of .3g of ANY drug. Rest assured you would have to really mess up to get busted for hash or weed.
Law enforcement: Cops don’t care. They may give you a hassle for being foreign and mock you. That is the extent of my experience. I did get slapped one time for lying to the cop… No ticket or deportation though.
Where to buy marijuana: HA. Naples, like the inner-cities of any major city has “bases”. Most are in an area called ‘zona 167’ near SECONDIGLIANO. most highways in the south of italy meet there. Good spot for organized crime. I would not suggest a foreigner going there without the assistance of a local guide.
A base for weed and hash will tend to have two guys, one for the money and one for the shit. Those are the drive thru ones. Some you have to get out and go in or up to a little bank-teller style hole-in-the-wall. The more ‘tude you show the better sticks and bags you get. That is my experience.
Mind you, italians are very lazy. So there are places to cop EVERYWHERE. One of my faves is behind the MacDonald’s resturant in Piazza Dante. There are kids from a soccer firm called the mastiffs. Good weed.
Good hash is not at bases, well not normally, ask about la pasticceria. they have afghan,morroc and turk normnally. and indoor grown weed.
Good weed floats around the base. generally in the outskirts of Guigliano, Torre dell’annuziata and marano you can find some good stuff before they cut the weed.
Yeah I said they cut they weed. They spike it with medicines and shit like barbituates and opiates. Watch out for that. If they weed smells wrong, it is probably wrong

Legislation: In Italy if you’re caught with less than 500 mg THC (about 5 gr. low quality hash or 2,5 high quality hemp) they only make you an administrative fine, with more, you risk a trial for dealing.
Law enforcement: It depends on the officer’s . On railway station and on the city center sometimes there are policemen with dogs, so be careful.
Don’t carry more than 5g and you should be fine.
Italian police are not known for their vigilance, and Bologna is no exception. Everyone knows where all the dealers hang out but the police never mess with them. It’s tolerated, so long as you avoid the really flashy, touristy areas. I guess they want to make a good impression of the city.
Where to buy marijuana: In Via Zamboni (university street) there are lots of junkies and Moroccans selling hash, sometimes weed. Junkies usually try to sell fake or bad quality hash (if they say something like: “police is coming” and try to make it quick, they’re almost surely trying to sell you fake stuff), Moroccans usually sell a little bit better hash, rarely weed
Your best bet is the university district in the eastern part of the city. More specifically: go to piazza verdi and look for the Greek restaurant. Immediately facing the Greek restaurant, there is a small open space with a couple of trees and phone booths in it. You’ll see the dealers there (usually with their dogs) almost all the time. Approach them with a smile and a “biongiorno”, and just ask for hash. They’re very open and quite friendly.
another reporter added: “i wanted to inform that piazza Verdi DO NOT GO THERE becuase now with the new senator they have put hundreds of cameras in that area and u will be caught as soon as u buy they have a surveillance truck there that normally does not move so i strongly suggest that if u don’t wanna get caught do not go there , also if u do buy there they normally sell u dirt actually dirt they don’t have any hash , the university’s all the dealers leave in the summer cause there no class no students no hash !!!! everybody goes to the beach if u wanna find bud just be a stoner and recognize the stoners ask them they hook u up most of the times that’s it and peace ”
Our latest reporters tell us: “In Piazza Verdi is difficult find hashish. Too many cops and cameras. Just walk down via Zamboni until you reach Piazzale Puntoni, the Moroccans are now there. Better moroccos then junkies”
Marijuana prices: It’s easy to get ripped off if they know you’re a foreigner. Mostly, you’ll be paying about 10-15 euros for a gram of hash.
Marijuana brands: Hash ranges from dark, terribly brittle stuff to some good hash oil. Moroccan, mostly. It’s really a crap shoot when it comes to quality.
Smoking tolerance level [1= very illegal 5=virtually legal]: 3.5
Legislation: In Italy you cannot sell, buy, smoke or grow cannabis. Soft and hard drugs are the same for Italian law. You must be very carefull if you smoke in public.
You will not go in jail for one joint but your driving license and your passport can be suspended. Probably actual left government will be more tollerant and there will be no problem if you have cannabis for personal use.
Law enforcement: Police, Carabinieri, Guardia di Finanza, Polizia Locale, (non ever in uniform, pay attention!) are almost averywhere in big cities as Milan.
a recent report we received argues that: “It is Illegal, but sold in some store, and parks. Hash, and marijuana are very tolerated.”
Where to buy marijuana: Marijuana is hard to find if you do not know poeple but hash is easy to find.
In the afternoon go to Park Sempione just behind the Sforzesco’s Castle. Look for North African guys alone under a tree or on a bench and ask for “fumo” (hash). Pay attention to policemen not in uniform and hidden cameras (a lot in the park).
a recent report added: “in parks look for young north african, or italian young fellas who can provide hash, and the herb practically upon demand.”
Milan marijuana prices: About 10 euros for 1 gram.
Brands: Moroccan. Quality may vary (nothing to see with Amsterdam quality).
and a recent report added: ” Fumo (hash) can be Nero (black), Cioccolato (chocolate), morocco (also brown, least good)”
Smoking tolerance level [1= very illegal 5=virtually legal]: 1
Legislation: Marijuana is illegal, but is tolerated for personal useage. A new law may be passed allowing up to 5 grams of any drug for personal usage

Messina marijuana prices: Skunk from gianni@17/20€ per gram, elsewhere 10 mostly.
Normally everything sold at 10 euro per gram normal seedy weed at 5 Seedy Weed 50gr/180euro in Bad Areas like Maregrosso or Giostra, Annunziata, places where even messina’s people don’t like to go.
Strains: Mostly local medium weed, skunk , moroccoan hashish and from small kids chocolate bad quality hash.
More information: This town is sadly known as the heroin town that’s maybe why there’s so few pot dealers cuz the local mafia is interested in moving a more expensive drug with less troubles of weight without care of the silly kids in this town taking approach to this shit we can say messina is the maintown in sicily for heroin with night/day dealers with the cops complicity who get payed from most of the big dealers like shown many times in local papers, in fact there’s a junky tourism from the rest of sicily and calabria for what we mentioned before.

Legislation: it is illegal to buy ,smoke ,sell…..but it’s the desert so who gives a f**k.

More information: Buy a bong in a kiosk ,it’s the isrealy experiace
Smoking tolerance level [1= very illegal 5=virtually legal]: 2.5
Legislation: The last city law against the degradation has aimed the finger against the drinkers. For problems of public order and safety, the bottles of glass cannot be sold after the 10pm. Consequently the police, paradoxicalally, controls who drinks and not who smokes (not too much). In Florence to smoke a joint in the street is not absolutely a problem. Drink a bottle of beer instead is prohibited, therefore after the 10pm you can buy the cans of of beer and enjoy it
Currently the Italian law on the amount of hashish for personal use has been reviewed ( 1.000 milligrams is the maximum quantity of express active thc detenibile to personal use exclusively). The possession of 4,5/5g would not have to involve consequences. In Florence the police has never been too strict with who smokes, therefore now the situation is quite calm.
Law enforcement: The police does not insist on the smokers, however it is better to smoke or to buy in determines places. better to avoid the zone of Piazza della Signoria, the Uffizi and Piazza del duomo. These zones of the center continuously are invaded by the tourists therefore these are a lot watched.
You can smoke in open space, is easy, but not in the center area like near the Duomo or Piazza della Signoria. Police is quiet, but they’re howevere policemen therefore take care.
Where to buy marijuana in Florence:
Santa Maria Novella is the best quarter to buy, to smoke, to do what you want. Price are low (6, 7 euros X 1g of good African hashish). Be careful, because is not a too safe place.
Marijuana is hard to come by unless you know someone. Florence has a huge college student population from all over the world, so your best bet is to ask an American student who has been living in the city for several weeks and knows their way around. Florence is small, so you can walk just about anywhere. Your best bet is to hang out at any of the nightclubs near Santa Croce. People you meet in these nightclubs are generally all college students around age 20 or so, making your chances of scoring weed significantly higher.
There is also a headshop a few blocks north of Santa Croce. It has many different colored pot leaves painted on it, so it is hard to miss. Their merchandise is a steal: I bought a one foot bong that looks like an ancient Roman vase for only 6E. If you stop into the store and buy something, I am sure the cashier might be willing to help you out.
As a rule, DO NOT buy any weed around the Santa Maria Novella train station. This is usually the first place people enter Florence, since until very recently tourists had to take a train from Pisa’s airport because Florence’s airport was being renovated. The train station is usually very crowded and full of shifty characters. Do not buy weed from any gypsies or vagrants, because there is a good chance they might just take your money and you will end up with oregano. Not to mention the train station is patrolled heavily by cops.
our most recent report is: “In my city you must know some guys for cheap price and good hash/weed. I usually smoke holland weed and really potent marrocan hash, the best place where you can find some hash is Santo Spirito, this place by night is full of students, you can smoke withless preoccupation. Everyone smoke pot here. San Lorenzo (north african zone) can be a option, but be careful with your money because is a dangerous place for tourist or not italian people. Santa Croce is full of rip off. Santa Maria Novella by night is really dangerous. You can find some hash in local squats (centro sociale). For weed aquitance is the better way. The weed can bee fantastic or bad. Try at the Univerity in “piazza brunelleschi”, here you can find all you want!
Don’t try in the american pub or in other bad place like Cathedral, Andromeda, Lions ecc… ”
a local reporter added: “good idea not to buy anything near the station. I suggest also: not to buy anything in San Lorenzo zone: it is considered dangerous by the same florentine people so watch out!!
Better (in the evening or night) try the Brunelleschi and Santissima Annunziata zone (but you may get bad stuff), or Santa Croce square, were northafrican people will call you and sell medium quality hash. do not go alone (expecially girls), watch out for police and try to negotiate the price. ”
“The better low prices are those of the Piagge (ward in the north-west of Florence), but you go with someone of Florence because the zone is really, really dangerous. ”
“There are many places where you can make interesting transactions. Beyond those in the list, I council: the african market of San Niccolo, the park of San
Salvi (where are a good bar called Ulisse and a squat that proposes some anarchopunk concerts) and Saint Spirito place (here you can try directly in the square or in a alley where is a bar called “Caffט Notte).
Near square Sant’ Ambrogio there is an optimal store specialized in hemp where to buy fantastic seeds and to become agriculturist”
Latest reprts say: “The best place i found and a constant connect was in a place called Lungarno. It was by a bus stop on the corner of valle antonio gramusci and lungarno cristofo colombo there was usually a couple of moroccan guys pretty shady looking but ok always constant. They are usually sitting on the wall they will ask you. Just say you want Cinquanta (fifty) anything more than that they will rip u off.
Florence marijuana prices: Nothing in this city comes cheap, including marijuana. Expect to pay 15-20E or so for a gram of mediocre pot.
A recent report is: ” 2g X 20e
5g X 50e
really good hash or weed 10/12e x1g ”
and also “For Hash: north african hash, in the streets, 10e x 1g. If you know some people the price flow down a 5 or 6e for gram. Idian hash, sublime hash (!!!) 10 or 12e for 1 gram. In Florence many people smoke hash with chilum.
For weed 10e x 1g.”
Brands: North African Hash (called Marocchino can be bad or really good, it’s the most commonly pot in Florence-cheap) Borbuka (top strong and tasty african hash-expensive) Charas (indian hash, fantastic, really strong with an incredible taste, smoke it with chilum-expensive) Polline (good hash, much diffusing, above all you draw road dealers- relatively cheap) Weed (many people in Florence cultivate the weed in house, this can be really good or not, the weed that comes from the Swiss or Holland is enough diffuse, always fantastic, but much more beloved than that one cultivated in house- generally expensive, it depends on the quality )
More information: While the cannabis culture in Florence is limited, alcohol is widely acceptable as a form of inebriation. Bars, pubs, and nightclubs are all over the city, catering to all different kinds of customers. The drinking age is 16, though never enforced. There are no laws against having an open container of alcohol in public (I walked down the street drinking from a liter of Heineken all the time)
a good piece of advice was: I would usually act like a jogger and run along cristofo colombo, do the exchange then keep running. You don’t want to get caught in Italy with drugs, they will arrest you.
Marijuana, by comparision, is far riskier and less plentiful. Finding it is not impossible though. Unless you know a decent amount of Italian, sticking to nightclubs and bars like Andromeda and Lochness that are dominated by English-speaking students to better your chances of meeting people.
Florence is a really quite city for smoke, it’s full of hippies and by night the squares are full of young people who play music, drink good Chianti wine and smoke strong and tasty Chilum. Many people from Pisa or Siena come in Florence to buy hash or weed beacause the price is lower than other city. If you buy 50g or more, the affair is really cheap… The clubs and the squats propose a tons of reggae/dub party (Florence love reggae), good vibration, good music, and excellent occasions to find all the pot you want.
Florence is probably the more hippie city of Italy, in the night the public squares is filled up of people that sound, of jugglers and students. The police generally does not control very the persons who smoke, ago much more attention to the drunks, than often they become troublesome. If you come stopped with a little piece of pot, generally the policeman throws it out, he perceives you for the next time and he leaves you to go.
and also: “Hello, i’m italian, i live in Florence from some years. I would want to say something on how much i read a this profile. Reading it in fact I have noticed several discrepancies between who says that in Florence smoke it is much easy one and who says the contrary. I believe that such problem turns out from the fact that who says that here to find some hash or weed is hard, is an american. Florence in fact is full of foreign students, many of which are americans and, considering their number and the amount of pub or clubs it specializes for the customers american, these stretch to make group, go only to determines clubs (like the Lions, the Cathedral or the Fish) and remain outside from true Florence. People of Florence, generally, do not have relationships with the students americans. I have not never seen one student american in a squat, in an university party and very rarely i have met some american in the bars where i usually go. I think that for they is truly difficult to find a good hash spending a reasonable money. The street dealers are a lot attention to who to sell and the americans, and the tourists in a generalized manner, often come seen like persons to which give rip-off. Therefore the same piece of hash that to an italian would be sold for 10 euro, for an american is sold for 25. To often discuss is useless because the dealers, above all in some zones as Saint Lorenzo or Santa Croce, are not the calmest persons and the brawls are frequent. I counsel truly much calm in buying hash/weed, above all in Saint Lorenzo (but also the train station Santa Maria Novella), this quarter is not sure the better place where negotiate if you do not speak italian , particularly in the night. My advise is therefore know someone, make friendship and to that point the problems would have to be end. However in Santo Spirito square, where every night come in very many persons, the situation is calm and better things are found.
In Florence great problems do not exist to smoke. In the streets and in the public squares it is spold more, is natural, but enough to make the just encounter for having of the optimal one hash/weed without to spend too much. The squats and some clubs are optimal places where you can find all that of which you have need.
Moreover, during the vacations of the 25 April, in Florence carries out the “72 Ore”, a big rave party with very many sound system (reggae, tekno, drum’n bass, goa, breakbeat etc…) for three days. This event is organized against the Italian prohibitionist laws about the drugs. People of all Italy come for these three days of total madness, during which you will find and see all. Guarantee. Enjoy it!
