The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here, and I’ve gotta be straight with you – this 16-day outlook for Panoramas is a bit of a tough one. There’s no real fire in the forecast, and we’re looking at a long stretch of very ordinary conditions. The first decent session doesn’t roll in until Monday, 7th September afternoon, and even then it’s a bit of a letdown. The water temp is sitting right around average for this time of year at 71°, so nothing unusual there.
The overall pattern is small, weak, and mostly blown out. We start on Monday, 7th September afternoon with a tiny 2ft NW swell, but the wind is cross-onshore at 9 mph, making it choppy and pretty poor. Not worth paddling out for. The combined swell energy is weak at 140 (moderate wave energy), but the conditions kill it.
Tuesday, 8th September morning is the first real glimmer. The wind drops to glassy from the SSW at just 3 mph, and we’ve got a 2ft WNW swell with a longer period of 12 seconds. That’s a groundswell, and it’ll have some shape. The energy is still moderate (162), but it’s clean. If you’re itching for a wave, this is the pick of the early week – but it’s tiny, so manage expectations. The afternoon goes downhill again with cross-onshore winds.
Wednesday, 9th September is a write-off with cross-onshore and cross winds, and the swell is a messy 3ft to 3ft. Thursday, 10th September morning offers another glassy window with a 3ft NW swell, but the period is short at 8 seconds and the energy is weak (75). It’s surfable but ordinary. This pattern repeats for days: small glassy mornings that are just okay, then blown-out afternoons.
The standout – if you can call it that – is Friday, 18th September morning. That’s 11 days out, so it’s a long-range call, but it’s the biggest swell in the forecast. We’re looking at 4ft NW swell with a period of 8 seconds, and glassy conditions from the south at 3 mph. The combined energy hits 176 (moderate), and it’s the cleanest window with some size. Still, it’s a beach and reef setup, and with that short period, it won’t be epic, but it’s the best on offer.
The afternoon of the 18th jumps to 5ft NW swell, but the wind turns cross-onshore at 9 mph, and it gets choppy. That’s too big for beginners and just messy for everyone else. The energy is strong (281), but the wind ruins it.
Overall, there’s a big gap of days with no real recommendation. From the 9th to the 17th, it’s mostly small, weak, and ordinary. A few glassy mornings give you a chance at a knee-high wave, but nothing to write home about. The 18th morning is your best bet, but it’s a long way off. For a consistent spot like Panoramas, this is a flat, frustrating run. Forecasts can change, but right now, it’s a waiting game.

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.
