The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get into it.
We’ve got a pretty quiet stretch ahead for Panoramas. The water is sitting at a warm 74°, which is a couple of degrees warmer than usual for this time of year – the ocean feels like a bath.
The whole 16-day window is a bit of a struggle. The best we can see are a few fleeting moments that are just "surfable" but nothing that'll get your heart racing. The swell is small, mostly around 3ft to 4ft from the NW, with a short period of 7 to 9 seconds. That means weak, choppy, and unorganized waves. The combined swell energy is mostly low, with only a couple of days hitting moderate numbers like 133 or 180, but it’s never enough to overcome the poor conditions.
The only real windows to bother getting wet are the glassy mornings. Thursday morning the 6th of August has a glassy surface with 3ft NW swell, but it's just ordinary. Then Thursday morning the 13th of August repeats that with 2ft from the WNW – again, glassy but tiny. You’ll also find a few glassy starts on the 16th, 17th, and 18th of August, with similar inconsiderable 3ft NW swell. The problem is, every afternoon gets ruined by a cross-onshore breeze that chops it up.
There are no true standouts here. The best of a bad bunch is the Thursday morning (August 6th) with that glassy surface and 3ft NW swell. It’s small, but it’ll be the cleanest you’ll see. The other glassy mornings are okay for a longboard or a foamie, but don't expect much.
The gap between any decent looking surf is basically the whole period. It’s a long run of poor surf quality, and the few "surfable" moments are just barely that. It’s a tough run for the area.
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.
