Alright, grab a coffee, let’s have a look at what’s happening around Sidi Ifni.
Right now, we’ve got a bit of a slow start. The first real chance to paddle out hits Thursday morning (2 July). It’s not a classic, but Sidi Ifni (Morocco) will see a clean, glassy morning with a 6ft swell from the NNW, period around 10 seconds. That’s moderate wave energy (551) and the water temp is sitting at 67°, pretty average for this time of year. The wind is glassy – that’s a big plus – so the beach and reef setup should have some fun, shapely lines for beginners. It might just be the best session on offer for the whole run. Keep an eye on crowds, they’re possible here.
Thursday afternoon though, the wind swings cross-onshore, and the quality drops fast. Then from Friday (3 July) right through to Wednesday (15 July), it’s pretty grim. Most days are a mix of small, weak swell and cross-onshore or onshore winds. The swell drops to tiny – 1.0ft to 3ft – with short periods, and combined energy gets as low as 33. Honestly, it’s not worth getting wet. There’s a massive gap from Friday morning right through to the middle of the second week.
There is one brief glimmer on Sunday morning (5 July) with another glassy morning, but the swell is only 2ft and weak (100). Surfable, but ordinary. Same again on Monday morning (6 July): 2ft, glassy, but just not enough push to get excited about.
By the time we hit the second week (12 July onwards), it stays poor. There’s a small pulse of long-period swell (13 seconds) on Sunday morning (12 July) but it’s only 1.0ft – too tiny to do anything with, and the wind is onshore. Later, around 14 July, we see a small bump in size to 4ft from the NNW, but it’s short period (7 seconds) and the wind is cross-shore, so it’s messy. Not worth paddling out for.
Bottom line: Thursday morning (2 July) is your one standout – get it while it’s clean and glassy. After that, it’s a long stretch of small, wind-affected slop. For this area, a blank run like this isn’t unusual, but forecasts can change, so keep an eye out.

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