The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here.
Look, I’ll be straight with you. The next couple of weeks at Panoramas are looking pretty grim for a proper surf. We’ve got a run of small, weak, and messy conditions that will test your patience more than your paddle. The swell is coming from the northwest, but it’s mostly short-period windswell with not much punch.
We start things off this Wednesday afternoon, and it’s not pretty. There’s a fresh cross-shore breeze from the northwest at 30 km/h, and the swell is a jumbled 4ft at 8 seconds. The wave energy is moderate (203), but it’s just lumpy cross-chop. Not worth getting wet for, to be honest.
Thursday morning offers a brief glimmer. The wind drops to a glassy 5 km/h from the west, and while the swell drops to a weak 3ft, the clean conditions make it feel more inviting. It’s surfable, but pretty ordinary. That afternoon the breeze swings around to a gentle cross-shore from the northwest at 15 km/h, and the swell bumps up to 5ft, but it’s messy again. A frustrating combination.
The rest of the week stays in this funk. Friday has light cross-onshore winds and small, weak surf. Saturday morning is clean and glassy with a tiny 3ft swell, but it’s still just knee-high dribble. Sunday and Monday bring even smaller waves, dropping to 1ft and 2ft. There’s just no real energy in the water.
The water temp is 73°, which is a touch warmer than normal for this time of year, a small comfort in an otherwise bleak outlook.
The first week is a write-off. We’ve got a solid stretch of days with no worthwhile surf from around the 13th through the 20th. You’re better off finding something else to do.
Now, looking further out, there’s a hint of something on the horizon. Around Monday the 21st, a longer period swell (17 seconds) shows up. The energy jumps to a solid 206, which is moderate, but the size is still small at 2ft. The wind is glassy in the morning, so it will be clean, but it’s just not going to have any power. This is a promising sign, but it’s a week away and these long-range calls are less certain. It might get better, but for now, it’s still not a standout.
Honestly, the best of a bad bunch is that Thursday morning session, but that’s not saying much. We’re just waiting for a proper pulse of energy to match that northwest direction with some size. Until then, keep the board in the car and the expectations low.
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.
