The Lowdown
G’day, I’m Rusty. Let’s keep it real – the outlook for Panoramas over the next two weeks is flat as a pancake. There’s a big stretch of days with nothing worth paddling out for, so don’t get your hopes up.
Starting Sunday the 16th, morning has a glassy 0.7m NW swell with an 8-second period and weak energy at 59. The water’s sitting at 22°, about a degree warmer than average for the time of year. Wind is WSW at 3 mph, glassy, but waves are just surfable and ordinary. That’s the best it gets early on, and it’s poor.
The rest of Sunday through Friday the 21st is a washout. Monday the 17th to Thursday the 20th offers tiny waves under 0.6m, cross-on winds or glassy conditions, but every session is poor. Energy stays low, bouncing between 20 and 63. Friday afternoon sees a bump to 1.1m but with a short 5-second period and moderate cross-shore chop – messy.
Saturday the 22nd stays small with 0.8m NW swell, 7-second period, energy around 97 to 101, and cross-on winds. Sunday the 23rd morning has a brief clean patch with offshore WSW wind at 3 mph over a 0.6m NW swell and a better 10-second period, but it’s still poor. That’s the only glimmer in the first week.
The second week doesn’t get any better. From Monday the 24th to Saturday the 29th, we’ve got tiny NW swells from 0.3m to 0.9m, periods mostly 7-10 seconds, and energy staying below 100 except for one pop. Saturday the 29th afternoon gives a 0.9m NW swell with offshore E wind at 6 mph, clean, and energy at 121 (moderate). It’s surfable but very ordinary.
Finally, Monday the 31st morning offers a 0.7m NW swell, 10-second period, cross-off SE wind at 6 mph, and energy at 149 (moderate) with clean lines. It’s the best looking window of the whole 16 days, but still just surfable. That far out, it’s promising but uncertain.
If you’re keen, the 31st morning is your only real shot. This kind of blank run is normal here when the swell just doesn’t line up. Forecasts can change, so don’t lose hope – it won’t stay this poor forever.
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.
