The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s on offer for Panoramas over the next couple of weeks.
Alright, to be straight with you, this outlook is pretty flat. The whole 16-day window is a quiet one. There’s no real standout, no big swell to get excited about. If you’ve got the itch, you can scratch it, but you won’t be getting barrelled.
The water temp is about average for this time of year, nothing wild there.
Let’s talk about Saturday the 12th. That’s your best bet. We’ve got a tiny bit of swell from the NW, about 3 ft, but the energy is weak, only 71. The wind is glassy in the morning from the ESE at 3 mph, so it’ll be smooth. The afternoon turns dead calm with a glassy 4 ft, and the combined energy jumps to a moderate 206. It’s surfable but very ordinary. Not a day to write home about, but it’s the cleanest conditions we’ll see.
The next week is a blur of small, weak swell. Sunday the 13th drops off to 2 ft and a pathetic 41 energy. The wind is cross-offshore, so it’s clean, but there’s just nothing pushing through. Monday the 14th has a glassy morning with 1 ft and a long-period 13-second groundswell from the WNW, energy at 79. That long period might make it a bit too straight on this beach-and-reef setup, but it’s worth a paddle if you’re desperate. The afternoon gets chopped up by 12 mph cross-onshore wind.
The middle of the week, Tuesday the 15th through to Thursday the 17th, shows the same story: tiny glassy mornings under 3 ft, then afternoon winds from the NW or WNW ruining the surface. By the time we hit Friday the 18th, the swell is still under 3 ft, and the wind is cross or cross-on. The energy stays in the double or low triple digits, nothing that will get your heart racing.
The second week, from the 21st onwards, is even more of a snooze. The waves rarely crack 2 ft. The period gets long again – up to 15 seconds on the 22nd – but the energy is still moderate (157), so you’ll be waiting a long time between sets for a knee-high lump. The wind is almost always cross-onshore or onshore, so expect bumpy, messy conditions.
Saturday the 26th and Sunday the 27th are the tail end, with 1 ft of weak NW swell and poor conditions. Not worth bothering with.
Honestly, if you want to get wet, aim for the 12th in the afternoon when it’s glassy and the 4 ft is the biggest we see. Any other time, you’re fighting small, weak, or choppy surf.
Keep your expectations low. 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.
