The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s look at what’s cookin’ for the next couple weeks.
Honestly, the first few days are a bit of a dud. There’s a real gap with no decent surf to start. Your first real chance to paddle out comes on Saturday the 10th.
Saturday the 10th, first light, Panoramas is showing a little life. It’s a beach and reef break, gets a fair bit of swell, and it’s pulling in a NW groundswell. Swell height is about 3 ft, period is a short 7 seconds. The wind is glassy – dead calm out of the S at 5 km/h, so the surface will be like a mirror. Combined energy is weak at 70, so it’s not a big day, but for a clean, sneaky morning session, it’s the best you’ll find. Water temp is about average for the season.
Sunday the 11th morning is also glassy, with a 2 ft NW swell, but the energy drops to 51, and the period is still short. It’s rideable, but nothing special.
The real standout is Saturday the 15th, early. Swell bumps up to 3 ft from the NW, period 8 seconds, and the combined energy hits 185 – that’s the strongest pulse of the whole run. The wind is glassy again from the S at 5 km/h, so it’s gonna be clean as a whistle. Crowds are sometimes an issue here, so you might have a few other heads around, but for a Saturday morning, this is the one to circle on the calendar. The swell direction is dead on the optimum for this spot.
After that, the second week gets pretty quiet. Small waves, short period, and mostly cross-on winds. The morning of Friday the 21st has a glassy 2 ft NW swell with a 9-second period, but the energy is only 72, so it’s a tiny little wave for the dedicated.
So, bottom line: aim for the morning of Saturday the 15th. Clean, glassy, and the biggest energy we’ll see. Don’t miss it.
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.
