The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what’s cooking for Pointe d'Imessouane over the next couple of weeks.
Honestly, the first week and a half is a bit of a write-off. We’ve got a long stretch from Thursday, July 16th right through to the end of the week after that where the surf is on offer, but it’s nothing to write home about. The wind is pretty much stuck in a cross-shore pattern, and the wave quality is marginal at best, with a persistent cross-chop messing things up. The swell is there, but it’s short-period stuff, mostly around 7 seconds, and it just doesn’t have the shape you want. The combined energy is moderate, ranging from (204) up to (768), but it never clicks with the conditions. You’ll see some size, with waves around 5 ft to 8 ft, but it’s all a bit of a messy affair. The water temp is hovering around 69°, which is pretty much average for the time of year, nothing unusual there.
Then, finally, the wait pays off. The real standout is the morning of Saturday, July 25th. The wind goes glassy, light from the SE, and the swell kicks up to 8 ft out of the NNW. With that glassy surface, the waves will be clean and lined up. The combined energy hits a strong (970). This is the moment you’ve been waiting for. It’s still a bit big for beginners, but for intermediates and above, it’s going to be a morning to remember.
The morning of Sunday, July 26th is another absolute cracker. The swell is a solid 10 ft, still from the NNW, and the wind is glassy again from the W. That’s big, powerful surf, only for the experienced crew. The combined energy is a massive (1250). This is the best of the best on offer, but look, with that size, it’s going to be a serious session. The point break at Pointe d'Imessouane will handle that long-period groundswell beautifully, giving you long, drawn-out walls.
After that, the quality drops off again. The wind starts to chop things up, and by the end of the month, the swell backs right off. The Thursday morning of the 30th has some strong cross-offshore wind, but the swell is dropping and the energy is weak (329). It’s not worth paddling out for.
So, to sum it up: the first ten days are a grind, but the 25th and 26th of July are the true standouts. Get ready for those glassy mornings.
Rusty.
