The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what Panoramas has in store for us. It’s a bit of a mixed bag, with some real clean windows but also plenty of onshore chop to dodge.
Overall, we’re looking at a run of small, playful waves from the northwest. The water’s sitting at a balmy 73°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, so that’s a nice bonus. The big story is the wind. When it goes glassy, the place will be fun for a longboard or a fish, but when that westerly wind kicks in, it turns into a choppy mess.
Friday the 11th is where you want to be. A nice glassy morning with light SW winds at 3 mph, and 3ft of northwest swell. It’s not big, but with that glassy surface, it’ll be clean and fun. The combined energy is weak (87), but the conditions make it worthwhile. By the afternoon, the wind swings onshore and the quality drops.
Saturday the 12th looks like a solid repeat of Friday. Glassy all day with that same playful 3ft NW swell. A great little dawny session for anyone who can get out.
Sunday the 13th is a write-off. Strong cross-offshore wind in the morning and onshore slop in the afternoon. The swell drops right down, so don’t bother.
Monday the 14th has a tricky morning. A very small, long-period groundswell (13 seconds) rolls in at 1ft. That long period will give it some shape, but it’s tiny. It’s best left for the point break setups, not the beach. The combined energy is still weak (95). The afternoon gets messy.
The rest of the first week is a struggle. The westerly wind just won’t quit during the afternoons, and the swell stays small. Thursday the 17th has a glassy morning with a slight bump in energy (128), but it’s still just 3ft.
Now, for the long-range look. Friday the 18th morning is a standout. Glassy conditions again with a 3ft NW swell, but this one has some extra grunt with a period of 11 seconds. The combined energy hits 165, which is moderate. It’s the best combo of the whole outlook, but we’re a week out, so treat it as promising.
Saturday the 19th and Sunday the 20th are more of the same – clean mornings, messy afternoons, small surf.
After that, we hit a real flat spell. From Monday the 21st through to Thursday the 25th, the swell drops to barely a ripple. You’ll see 1ft to 2ft on the charts, but honestly, it’s not worth paddling out for. The energy numbers are in the dumps.
There is a glimmer at the very end. Saturday the 26th sees a long-period (14 seconds) northwest swell arrive, pushing 3ft with a solid combined energy of 278. But the wind is cross-shore in the morning and cross-onshore in the afternoon. That long period will need a reef or point to show its best, and the wind might spoil the party.
The best bet for this whole forecast is the glassy morning of Friday the 18th – it has the best blend of clean conditions and moderate energy. The Saturday the 12th is a close second for pure glassy fun.
Rusty, signing off.

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.
