I have no first hand experience, but dug this out of 'The Rough Guide To Morocco' (condensed):

Many people 'dodge' by going back to Spain for a few days and re-enter via a different port or simply go to Ceuta.

To do it properly it appears you have to open a bank account in Morocco, deposting 20,000dh and obtain an 'Attestation de Residence' from your hotel, campsite or landlord.

Then onto the Bureau des Etrangers in the Police station of a large town at least 15 days before your time is up. You need passport and photocopy of main pages, 4 passport photos, two copies of the Attestation de Residence and two copies of your bank statement. The police give you some forms to fill out and eventually you get back residence permit.

The Rough Guide recommends the Bureau in Agadir, as there are a substantial number of ex-pats living there and the banking service is fairly efficient. They suggest Banque Populaire.

The Bureau des Etrangers is located at the Prefecture de Police on Rue du 18 Novembre.

Hope this is of use.
