Imsouane (The Bay) surf guide

Imsouane (The Bay) is a well-known surf spot in Morocco, famous for its mellow waves and stunning scenery. This area attracts a variety of surfers, mainly beginners and surf schools, making it a popular choice for those looking to learn or improve their skills. The easy access along the cliffs from the small town leads directly to the bay, which is hard to miss. Expect to share the waves with a good number of surfers, especially during peak times.

The Bay features a long, user-friendly right-hand point break, making it arguably the longest wave in Morocco. It typically handles swell sizes from about 2ft (0.6m) to 10ft (3m). Best conditions occur with swells coming from directions like SW, WSW, W, NW, and NNW, and the waves work well with low to mid tides. For paddling, it's pretty mellow, so beginners will find it manageable. While it's predominantly a right point break, there are also left and right reef breaks and beach breaks a little further down on the "Cathedral" side.

If you're looking to ride something different, Imsouane caters to various board types. You can have fun on a fish, a longboard, or even a funboard. Keep in mind, though, that the spot can get crowded, particularly with surf schoolers, so arriving early can help snag some good waves. The local vibe is generally laid-back, and even though you might clash with a few surf schoolers, it’s usually a friendly atmosphere. The best seasons to hit this spot are Autumn and Winter when the swells are consistent.
