Not really a Morocco related question but it looks like you will need to isolate on arrival in France

When I returned from Spain to the UK in early October 2020 I had to isolate for 14 days, however I was permitted within the rules to travel directly from my place of isolation (London home) to Gatwick airport to return to Spain five days just five days later.

I suppose it doesn't help your case that you would be travelling over 1,000km through France, but I would check a bit further on the rules. This site may help: https://www.connexionfrance.com/French-news

If the site plays up and asks you to register, open each news page by right clicking and 'open in incognito tab'.

even if i am treated as not vaccinated in France

under non vaccinated rule 3 so bit confused

3. Quarantine
Unvaccinated passengers over 12 years old must quarantine for 7 days upon arrival in France (unless transiting through France in under 24hrs). Unvaccinated minors travelling with fully vaccinated adults will not be required to quarantine.

it just says through France doesn't say distance so a bit confused

That suggests that if you enter and leave france within 24 hours then no need to quarantine. But I would contact the french embassy or similar to be 100% sure

Temporary Import paperwork is done at the port when you arrive in Morocco.

Local insurance is usually available at the port but I dont know where it is at Nador, have a search in the previous conversations its been discussed before

Our green card (Sweden) is valid for Morocco. I would think that goes for all of EU.

While most EU insurance will include Morocco cover its almost impossible to get the same cover in the UK unfortunately.
