The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here again, givin' it to ya straight for Panoramas. Over the next 16 days, it’s a pretty quiet stretch. There just isn’t a day that’s goin’ to blow your hair back – mostly small surf and tricky wind.
It starts Wednesday the 12th with a tiny 2ft NW swell pushin’ weak energy. Morning has a light cross-breeze, afternoon’s the same story. That carries through Thursday. Friday the 14th morning we finally see glassy water, but it’s still just 2ft with a 9-second interval – barely rideable. Water temp’s a touch warmer than usual at 72°, so that’s somethin’.
Saturday the 15th morning shapes up a bit better – glassy again with the swell nudge to 3ft from the NW, short 8-second period. Energy climbs, but it’s still ordinary. Then Saturday afternoon the wind shifts and it gets messy even as the swell pushes to 4ft.
Monday the 17th and Tuesday the 18th offer more glassy mornings, but the swell drops back to 2ft to 3ft. The one little standout might be Friday the 21st afternoon when the swell hits 5ft from the NW with a 7-second period. Energy is solidly moderate, but that moderate cross-breeze is gonna rough it up.
After that it’s more of the same – small swell, cross-winds, and low energy right through to the end of August. A few glassy windows on Sunday the 23rd and Thursday the 27th, but with only 2ft to 3ft on offer.
Honestly, there’s no proper standout. If you’re keen, hit a glassy morning when the swell’s at least 3ft, like Saturday the 15th or Monday the 17th. Otherwise, it’s a quiet spell for Panoramas and it looks like it’s here to stay.

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.
