The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let's look at the outlook for Panoramas. It's a beach and reef setup, pretty exposed to the swell, and looking for that NW groundswell.
Right off the bat, I gotta be straight with you: the next week and a half is looking pretty grim for a proper paddle. We've got a string of poor surf conditions starting from this Sunday, 23 August, and it just doesn't let up. The water is sitting at 73°, which feels a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, but that's about the only comfort.
The first real glimmer of hope doesn't show up until Wednesday, 2 September. That morning, we get a clean window. The swell is coming in from the NW at a modest 4 ft, with a period around 8 seconds, so it's a short-period wind swell, but the key here is the wind: it's glassy. Zero wind on the face. That will make for some clean, tidy little waves at this break. The combined energy is up there at a solid moderate level (277), which adds a bit of punch. That's your standout session for the entire forecast.
Before that, Monday morning, 24 August, has a moment with a glassy start and 3 ft NW swell, but the quality is just "surfable but ordinary." Not something to get excited about.
After the good Wednesday morning, the windows close again. There's a few mornings like Friday, 4 September, that start glassy with a 3 ft swell, but the energy is weak (86) and it's just not enough to call it good. The rest of the month is riddled with cross-onshore breezes and small, weak waves.
Looking way out to Monday, 7 September, there's a late-season pulse of very long-period groundswell from the west at 19 seconds, but it's only 2 ft. That kind of period and size at a beach and reef setup will be super inconsistent and won't do much. Don't hold your breath.
So, to wrap it up: there's nearly a full week of nothing worth mentioning, then one standout on the morning of Wednesday, 2 September. Get out there then if you can, because that glassy window with a touch of moderate energy is the only real chance we get.
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.
