The Lowdown
Alright, this is Rusty, and I’ve just had a good long look at what’s coming up for Pointe d'Imessouane. It’s a classic, exposed point break that’s pretty consistent, and it picks up a lot of the north-west swell that rolls through here. The water is sitting at 69°, which is bang on normal for this time of year, so no surprises there.
Honestly, the first few days are a bit of a write-off. Monday the 27th has some swell, but the wind is a messy cross-shore and the energy is moderate (214), but it’s just not coming together. Tuesday and Wednesday are pretty poor too, with weak, short-period swell and rippy cross-winds. It’s a bit of a frustrating start.
Then we get a glimmer. Thursday morning the 30th, the wind drops to glassy, and we’ve got a clean 6ft swell from the NNW. It’s not huge, but with that glassy surface, the wave quality will be the best we’ve seen so far. The combined energy is moderate (275). Friday the 31st morning is also glassy with 5ft, and the afternoon turns clean with a light cross-offshore breeze. That’s two solid sessions in a row.
The real standout, though, is further out. Mark your calendars for Thursday the 6th of August. That morning is looking like the pick of the entire forecast. The wind is glassy, and the swell is a solid 8ft from the NNW with a period of 8 seconds at a strong energy level (681). That’s a serious groundswell for this point, and with offshore wind, it’s going to be clean, powerful, and lining up well. That’s the one you want to be in the water for. It’s a bit big for beginners, but for intermediates and up, that’s the session.
The week after that keeps the swell up, but the winds get a bit stronger and more cross-shore, so the quality drops. The 7th, 8th, and 9th still have plenty of size (7ft to 10ft), but you’ll be dealing with some chop or strong wind. The energy is strong to very strong (up to 1311), so it’s definitely not flat, but it’s more of a challenge than a clean wave. The 10th and 11th also have big, powerful swell, but the wind is just not cooperating.
So, bottom line: the first few days are a dud, but don’t check out. Thursday the 30th morning and Friday the 31st are your first real chances for a clean wave. The absolute best on offer is Thursday the 6th of August morning. That’s the one. Get on it.
