The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s be straight with you. The next couple of weeks are looking pretty grim for a proper paddle. We’ve got a long stretch of poor conditions ahead, but let’s break it down day by day.
The outlook for Bouznika Plage is a tough one. For the first ten days or so, it’s a write-off. The winds are mostly cross-onshore, chopping up what little swell there is. We start on Tuesday the 4th with a weak 2ft of WNW windswell at 9 seconds, but it’s just messy. The energy is weak, around 65, and honestly, you’d be fighting a losing battle. We see a bit more size around Friday the 7th with 5ft, but it’s still cross-on and choppy. The water temp is 73°F, which is about normal for this time of year, so at least you won’t be freezing while you get skunked.
The first week is a total bust, with nothing but "poor surf conditions" and scores of zero. If the wind is howling from the north and it’s a cross-on mess, you’re better off finding something else to do. It’s not until Saturday the 15th, a full eleven days out, that we finally see a change. The morning brings a bit of hope with a glassy 5ft from the NW at 8 seconds. The energy is moderate, at 306, and the wind is finally calm. It’s surfable, but it’s ordinary. Not a standout, but the first real chance you’ll get.
The long-range stuff gets a little more interesting but it's still not great. As we head into the following week, the size picks up. On Tuesday the 18th, we’re looking at 6ft from the NW, and the energy is climbing to 390. The problem is the wind is back onshore and cross-on, so it’s going to be messy again. By Wednesday the 19th, the energy gets strong, hitting 445, but the wind is still an issue. It’s all a bit of a tease. The swell is there, but the conditions won’t cooperate.
For beginners, anything over 5ft is going to be a handful, and with the onshore winds, it’s going to be a washing machine. Honestly, with that kind of wind and the beach and reef setup here, the conditions might actually be more interesting for the kite crew than for us paddle surfers. Keep an eye on that glassy morning on the 15th, but don’t hold your breath.
You know the drill, it’s been flat before and it’ll get good again. Forecasts can change.
Rusty.

Information about the Bouznika Plage Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Bouznika Plage provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Bouznika Plage can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Bouznika Plage surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period.

Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Bouznika Plage may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself.
