The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get straight into it for Bouznika Plage. I’ve got the full 16-day picture and I’m not gonna sugarcoat it – the first ten days or so are a real struggle. We’re looking at a long, dry spell with barely a ripple worth paddling for. The good news is, things start to look up towards the end of July and into August, but you’ll need some patience.
The wave energy is weak to start, with combined energy sitting around 80 to 100 (weak) for the first few days, and the swell is a short-period, wind-driven mess coming from the NNW. The wind is mostly a cross-onshore breeze, making it choppy and lumpy. The water temp is 76°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so at least you won’t be cold while you’re sitting there watching close-outs.
From Saturday the 20th of July through to the 28th, we get a bit more push, with swell heights creeping up to 4 ft to 6 ft and the energy climbing into the moderate range (100 to 385). But it’s still all short-period, and the wind is mostly cross-onshore, so the wave quality is poor. It’s just not worth paddling out for that mess.
Now, the first real glimmer of hope comes on the morning of Wednesday the 29th of July. The wind swings around to a light cross-offshore from the ENE, and the swell is a consistent 5 ft from the NW with a period of 8 seconds. The energy is up to 258 (moderate), and the conditions are described as clean. It’s still not a standout, but it’s surfable and a big step up from the chop we’ve been dealing with.
But the real standout, the one you’ve been waiting for, is the morning of Thursday the 30th of July. The wind drops to glassy conditions from the NW, and we’ve got a 5 ft swell from the NW with a period of 10 seconds. The combined energy is a solid 394 (moderate). This is a groundswell now, and with that glassy surface, Bouznika Plage is going to be clean and lined up. This is your best bet in the whole forecast. The following morning, Friday the 31st of July, is almost a carbon copy – glassy conditions, 5 ft NW swell, 10-second period, energy at 368. Get in the water.
The run continues into August. The morning of Saturday the 1st of August is another glassy morning with a 5 ft NW swell, though the period drops to 9 seconds. Still, it’s clean.
Then we get a final note for the morning of Sunday the 2nd of August. The swell jumps to 7 ft from the NW with a 9-second period and a huge combined energy of 688 (strong). That’s a lot of water moving. The wind is very light and cross-onshore, and the report says it might be too big for this break. At 7 ft, it’s getting into the expert-only zone, especially at a reef and point break. If you’re a solid surfer, it could be a big, powerful session, but it’s worth respecting the size.
So, to wrap it up: the first week and a half is a write-off. The standout session is the morning of Thursday the 30th of July – glassy, clean, 5 ft NW groundswell. The mornings of the 29th, 31st, and 1st of August are also very good options. The big one on the 2nd of August is for the brave or the experienced only.
Stay patient, and you’ll be rewarded.
Rusty.
