The Lowdown
G’day, Rusty here. We’ve got a solid run of waves on the horizon at Pointe d'Imessouane, a consistent point break that’s exposed to the north-west. The water temp is sitting around 69°, which is just about normal for this time of year—nothing unusual there.
The first few days are a bit of a write-off, but things start to get interesting from Thursday the 17th. That morning, we’re looking at a clean 7ft swell from the NNW with a short 8-second period and moderate energy (584). The wind is a light cross-offshore from the north, so it’ll be tidy. It’s a little on the bigger side for beginners, but for the experienced crew, this is a fun morning. The afternoon gets messy though, with strong cross-shore winds.
Now, the standout window is Friday the 18th. The morning session is the real deal: a clean 6ft swell from the NNW with a 10-second period, decent energy (834), and light offshore winds. This is going to produce some proper, well-shaped lines peeling down the point. The afternoon holds up in size but gets a bit lumpy with cross-shore winds.
Saturday the 19th and Sunday the 20th drop off a bit—smaller, marginal conditions with onshore wind influence. Nothing to get excited about.
The following week kicks off with a few glassy mornings. Wednesday the 23rd is a ripper early: glassy conditions, a tiny 2ft swell but a very long 16-second period from the NW, packing 432 energy. That’s a long-period groundswell, so the point will turn it into clean, walling waves. It’s small, but the shape will be there for a longboard or a fun mid-length.
Thursday the 24th and Friday the 25th both offer glassy mornings with waist-to-chest high swell from the NW, periods around 12–13 seconds. Solid, fun surfing without the crowds (rarely busy here).
Then, right at the end of the forecast—Tuesday the 29th—we get another gem: a 4ft NW swell, 12-second period, 518 energy, and dead calm winds. That’s as glassy as it gets, and the point will be running smooth, long rides. This is a standout for the second week, though it’s a fair way out so keep an eye on it.
Overall, the best of the best is Friday the 18th morning, with a close second being Tuesday the 29th morning. Don’t sleep on those glassy mid-week sessions either.
Rusty.

Information about the Pointe d'Imessouane Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Pointe d'Imessouane provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Pointe d'Imessouane can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Pointe d'Imessouane 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 (Pointe d'Imessouane) 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 Pointe d'Imessouane 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.
