Bouznika Plage Surf Forecast and Surf Report

Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s coming up for Bouznika Plage.

Right off the bat, I gotta be honest with you – the next couple of weeks are looking pretty flat and messy for the most part. There’s no real swell to speak of for the first few days, and the wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore, making things choppy. The combined wave energy is weak, mostly under 100 (48-75), telling you there’s just no power in the water. Saturday the 5th is a write-off, and Sunday the 6th morning has a tiny 1 ft swell from the NNW with a long 14-second period, but the energy is still weak (153). The wind goes glassy, so it’s clean, but it’s barely surfable.

Monday the 7th morning is the first real bright spot. We’ve got a 2 ft swell from the NW, period stretching out to 15 seconds – that’s a proper groundswell, and the energy is moderate (378). The wind is light and offshore from the E, so the surface will be clean. The wave state is described as clean. This is a long-period swell, so at this reef-and-point break, it should wrap in nicely. The swell is tiny, so it’s fine for everyone, but don’t expect much push. Still, given the surrounding conditions, this is the standout of the first week.

Tuesday the 8th morning sees a bump in size to 4 ft from the NW, but the wind turns cross-on, and the energy picks up (433). The conditions are marginal, with light ripples on the water. It’s not great, but if you’re desperate, it’s the biggest we’ll see for a while. That afternoon it gets too choppy.

Wednesday the 9th morning is another good call. The swell is 5 ft from the NW, period 9 seconds, and the wind goes glassy – absolutely dead calm. The energy is strong (472) and the forecast says "expect good surf conditions." This is your best bet for the whole outlook. The swell is a bit over 5 ft, so it might be a little much for total beginners, but it’s still manageable for intermediates. The water temperature is about average for this time of year, so no need for a thick wetsuit.

After Wednesday the 9th, things drop off again. The rest of the week and into the next week, the swell stays small (1 ft to 4 ft), the wind is mostly onshore or cross-onshore, and the energy is weak to moderate. There’s a stretch from Thursday the 10th all the way to Sunday the 14th where there’s nothing really worth paddling out for. The conditions are described as "poor surf conditions" for most of those sessions.

Monday the 15th morning offers a little hope with a 3 ft NW swell, 10-second period, and glassy conditions. The energy is moderate (196), and the forecast calls it "surfable waves but very ordinary conditions." It’s clean, but it’s not going to blow your mind.

Tuesday the 16th onward is a mix of small, weak, and choppy. The energy dips back below 100 for many sessions. The long-period groundswell on Saturday the 19th (1 ft to 2 ft, 14-second period) is clean but tiny, and the energy (164-262) is moderate at best.

So, to wrap it up: if you’re looking to get wet, your best windows are Monday the 7th morning for the tiny, clean groundswell, and Wednesday the 9th morning for the biggest, glassy, good-quality surf. The rest of the 16 days is mostly a write-off. Crowds are possible at Bouznika Plage, as it’s a consistent spot, but with this weak forecast, it might be quiet.

Rusty out.
