Sidi Kaouki Surf Guide

Sidi Kaouki in Central Morocco is an exposed beach break that has quite reliable surf and can work at any time of the year. Offshore winds blow from the south. Tends to receive a mix of groundswells and windswells and the ideal swell direction is from the northwest. The beach breaks offer lefts and rights. The quality of the surf isn't affected by the tide. Even when there are waves, it's not likley to be crowded. Watch out for rocks.

“I have probably been to Sidi Kaouki 20 or 30 times and, sadly, every time it was an unsurfable, blown out mess.”
