The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here with a look at the waves on the way. To be honest, it’s a grim stretch ahead. We’ve got a 16-day run in front of us, and the first real chance of something half-decent doesn’t pop up until we’re into the first week of September. Before that, it’s a whole lot of nothing. So, let’s get into it.
Panoramas is the only spot on the radar, and it’s a beach and reef set-up. The wait is real. For the entire rest of August, you’re looking at tiny, weak swell and messy onshore winds. The combined energy barely scratches a hundred (94 to 73), which is just pathetic. It’s not worth paddling out.
Come Sunday morning, August 30th, we finally get a tiny window of hope. The wind goes glassy, which is a beautiful thing, and there’s a 3 ft NW swell. The energy is still weak (132), but with perfect conditions, you might snag a few little ones. That’s a stand-out moment for the light wind and clean surface, but don’t expect any power.
The next little highlight falls on the morning of Wednesday, September 2nd. We get a 4 ft NW swell with a cross-offshore breeze. That’s clean and has a bit more push, with combined energy reaching 197. It’s not pumping, but for this forecast, it’s the most interesting it gets. The period is a short 9 seconds, so expect a bit of a lumpy, local windswell feel.
From there, it drops off a cliff again. After September 3rd, we’re back to tiny blips. The week starting September 7th has some glassy, clean mornings, like the 7th and 8th, but with swell down to 2 ft and 2 ft, and energy in the 70s and 80s, it’s a log or a longboard party only. The morning of September 11th even has a 0.7 ft swell from the west—barely a ripple.
Overall, for a wave worth getting excited about, you’re looking at the glassy Sunday the 30th of August for the cleanest, most user-friendly conditions, and the Wednesday the 2nd of September for the most size and energy. But temper your hopes. Everything else is a write-off.
Rusty.

Information about the Panoramas Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Panoramas provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Panoramas can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Panoramas 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 (Panoramas) 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 Panoramas 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.
Panoramas is 6 km (4 miles) from the city of Agadir. If you plan a holiday in Central Morocco, look for hotels and other accommodation in Agadir. Agadir has rooms for a wide range of budgets as well as car hire and transport links.
