The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s have a look at what Pointe d’Imessouane has in store for us over the next couple of weeks.
We’re starting off a bit quiet. The first few days are touch-and-go, with the wind not playing nice. There’s some swell, but it’s mostly cross-shore, making it messy. You’ll get a bit of a window on Monday morning, the 24th of August, with a clean 5ft NW swell and a cross-offshore breeze. The wave energy is moderate (633), and the water temp is a comfortable 71°, which is about average for this time of year. It’s not a total standout, but it’s the best we’ve got early on.
Things look a bit more promising towards the end of the first week and into the start of September. That Tuesday morning, the 1st of September, brings a proper offshore wind from the ENE, blowing at 12 mph, with a 6ft NW swell. The energy is moderate (459), and the conditions should be clean. This is a solid option for the intermediate crew.
But the real gem of this forecast? Look at the 3rd of September, Thursday morning. We’ve got a 7ft NW swell, a light northerly cross-offshore breeze, and the wave energy is building nicely (933). The report says it’s "very good surf conditions." This is your best bet. The period is 8 seconds, so it’s a shorter-period swell, but with that wind and size, it’ll be punchy and fun. Just be aware that at 7ft, it’s getting a bit big for beginners, but it’s prime for intermediates.
The following week is a mixed bag. There’s a few glassy mornings on the 4th, 5th, and 6th of September, with 5ft to 5ft NW swells. Those are worth a paddle for sure, with clean conditions. The energy is lighter (332 to 228), so it’s more of a cruisy session.
There’s a gap in the surf quality after the 7th of September, so don’t bank on anything epic that far out. The long-range signals are there, but it’s less certain.
Overall, keep your eyes on Thursday the 3rd of September for the best session. Monday the 24th of August is your best early bet, and those glassy mornings in the first week of September are a solid fallback. Crowds are rare here, so you’ll have plenty of room.
Rusty.
