The Lowdown
Hey mates, Rusty here. Let’s break down the Panoramas forecast.
Water temp is about 73°F – a touch warmer than usual, nothing crazy but nice if you’re used to colder water here.
Overall, it’s a pretty average outlook. Most afternoons get chopped up by a cross-onshore breeze from the WNW, and the mornings are where the clean windows are. But don’t expect pumping surf most days.
The clear winner is Saturday morning, August 29th. Glassy conditions, clean faces, and a nice 4ft swell from the NW with an 11-second period – proper groundswell energy. The combined swell energy is moderate at 315, so it’s got some weight. This is the optimum direction for Panoramas, so the break should be lined up well. It’s consistent and fairly exposed, so expect waves. Just be aware it can get a crowd here sometimes – get out early.
Another decent option is Tuesday morning, August 25th. Glassy again, smaller swell at 3ft from the NW with a 9-second period, less energy (159). Still clean and fun for a slow session.
A few other mornings – the 26th, and September 2nd and 3rd – have glassy conditions, but the swell is tiny, around 3 to 4ft, with short periods. Not terrible, just ordinary.
Once we hit the second week, the September afternoons stay choppy. The mornings on the 5th and 6th are glassy but the swell is dropping into the 3ft range. By the 7th, the swell shifts to straight W with a long 15-second period, but it’s only 2ft to 2ft – too small to care about.
So, bottom line: that Saturday the 29th is the only real standout. Everything else is a struggle. If you’re keen, that’s your morning.
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.
