The Lowdown
Alright, Rusty here. Let’s talk about Pointe d'Imessouane in feet and miles per hour.
The next week is a bit of a slog. The swell is there, running 6 to 8 feet, but it’s all short-period stuff – 7 to 8 seconds – and the wind is mostly cross-shore or cross-onshore, leaving a choppy, lumpy mess. Water temp is 69°, right about average for the season.
Monday the 20th starts with a 7 foot northerly swell, cross-shore wind, and moderate wave energy (620). The forecast says marginal. Not worth the paddle. Tuesday through Friday (21st to 24th) is more of the same: swell heights between 6 and 8 feet, but the wind stays stubbornly cross or cross-on, and the energy drops into the 300s and 400s. It’s poor or marginal surf.
A glimmer of hope on Saturday morning, July 25th. The swell is 8 feet from the NNW, the wind turns light cross-offshore from the N at 9 mph, and the energy is 762. The conditions are clean. That’s the best of the first week, but it’s still an 8-second swell, so the waves will be a bit short and fat.
Sunday the 26th morning is similar – 8 feet, light cross-off wind, clean, and 703 energy – but the afternoon winds pick up and ruin it.
The real standout is a week away. Saturday, August 1st morning is looking prime. The swell is 7 feet from the NNW, the wind goes glassy from the NE at 3 mph, and the energy is 694. Glassy, clean, and a point break that loves a NW swell. That’s the one to get excited about.
Then, Sunday, August 2nd morning is for the big dogs. The swell hits 10 feet from the NNW, with a light cross-offshore wind from the NNE at 6 mph, and the energy is a strong 1307. The forecast says "excellent surf conditions for experienced surfers." At 10 feet, this is expert-only territory, but it’ll be a proper session for those who can handle it.
Bottom line: the first week is a write-off. The second week has a glassy, clean day on August 1st that’s the best all-rounder, and the big swell on August 2nd morning for the experienced crew.
Rusty.
