More about Imsouane (The Bay) surfspot

General: A consistent, long, user-friendly (mellow, actually) right-hand point, "The Bay" at Imsouane is the prototypical beginner/surf school spot in Morocco. That being said, it is also a blast on a log or fish, even for experienced surfers (just try to get there before the surf schools). Arguably the longest wave in Morocco. There are also left and right reefs, beachbreaks, and points around the corner, on the "Cathedral" side. Tides: Low to mid Size: Knee-high to overhead. Wind: NE Swell: N, NW, W, SW Bottom: Point with sand and rocks. Paddling: Mellow. Spot Rating: Epic if you are a beginner, good if you are a longboarder, fun if you are on a fish.

All levels

Follow the road along the cliff from the small town to the bay. Access is obvious.

Consistent swells in the Autumn and winter.

Crowd Factor: Gets quite crowded, with tons of visiting surfers and surf schoolers. Local Vibe: Local scene is pretty well developed, but it's a beginner wave and there are lots of surf schoolers.

Beautiful water that's relatively clean.

Rocks, crowds.
