The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cookin' for Bouznika Plage over the next couple weeks.
Right off the bat, I’ve gotta be straight with you – this stretch is looking pretty grim for a paddle. Bouznika Plage is a reef and point setup that’s sheltered and gets its best juice from the NW, but the wind is just not playing ball. The water temp is sitting at 73°F which is about average for this time of year, so nothing weird there.
We start Wednesday the 26th with glassy conditions in the morning – tiny 3ft NW swell with a weak energy reading of 69 – but it’s labelled as poor surf conditions. The afternoon turns onshore and it’s game over. Thursday and Friday see a bit more size, but the wind is cross-on or onshore, keeping things messy. By Friday afternoon we’ve got 5ft NW swell with moderate energy (422) but it’s a fresh cross-onshore lumpy mess – honestly, that setup looks more interesting for kite surfing than paddle surfing.
Saturday the 29th morning is the first time we see a glimmer of hope: 6ft NW swell, period stretching to 11 seconds, and decent energy (749). But the wind is cross-on, and the forecast calls it marginal at best. Sunday morning the 30th is glassy with 4ft NW swell, energy down to 254, but again it’s described as surfable but very ordinary. If you’re desperate, that Sunday pre-dawn session might be your best bet, but it’s nothing to write home about.
From there, it’s a long stretch of poor surf conditions right through to the end of the first week of September. Monday the 31st, Tuesday the 1st, Wednesday the 2nd – all cross-on winds, moderate energy, and poor quality. Thursday the 3rd is cross-shore chop, and Friday the 4th is light cross-on with small waves. By Saturday the 5th we get glassy again but with tiny 2ft NW swell – energy a pathetic 74. Not worth wetting the board.
Sunday the 6th brings a bit more size with 4ft NW swell and a longer 11-second period, energy climbing to 350, but the wind is cross-on and it’s still poor. Monday the 7th is cross-shore with 3ft NW swell, energy 199 – still poor. Tuesday the 8th has 4ft from the NNW, but it’s cross-on again. The rest of the week stays small and messy, with Wednesday the 9th and Thursday the 10th offering glassy mornings but tiny waves – 3ft and 1ft respectively.
So, the honest truth? There’s no standout session in this 16-day window. The best you’ll get is a marginal glassy morning here and there, but nothing consistent or clean enough to get excited about. Bouznika Plage is a consistent spot, so it’s a bit of a bummer – but sometimes you get a run like this. Forecasts can change, so keep an eye out, but for now, I’d say leave the board at home.
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. If you surf the same spot (Bouznika Plage) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. 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. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
