Imsouane Surf Spots

Cathedral point, The Bay & The Reef, some of Morocco's best surf spots.

The Magic Bay

The Magic Bay made Imsouane a famous surf destination, because it's a seemingly never-ending right-hand wave. This wave is perfect for longboard surfers, who know how to stay on the wave and connect the wave together in flow.At the other side of the village you find Cathedral which has several peaks. Cathedral also has a right-hand pointbreak, shorter and more aggressive than the one in the Magic Bay. The Point is fun, depending on the conditions, with a longboard, a short single fin, a twin fin, finless or shortboard.Besides The Point, there is a Beach-Break, very suitable for beginners to learn to surf without forming a dangerous for themselves or other surfers.And The Reef, which is a beautiful fast lefthand wave. The right wav for shorter single fins, twin fins and shortboards.

Cathedral Point

Located on Imsouane's northern peninsula also called Cathedral Point, there are more exposed to the North-Atlantic ocean swell, especially in winter.

It breaks on the right corner of the northern peninsula - perfect when clean winter swell. Short boarders’ and body boarders’ favourite spot. The wave can be just incredible either at low tide or, at high tide when there is a good north western swell, even more when it reaches 8 feet. When waves are 5 feet or more, it is a powerful and pretty tough peak which requires a certain level of surfing skills. It is well known for its steep wave which can turn into a barrelling monster - up to 20 feet high, when big winter swells come.

Reef & Slab

At the point of Imsouane’s southern peninsula. The Berber name of Imsouane’s Slab is ``Isli`` , the husband, and was given to the rocky bottom immersed at high tide by local women going picking mussels at low tide.
Imsouane slab has two points, 1st one south side and 2nd one north side.
Between the two Points, a Reef Break, The Slab. Don’t even think about surfing it. On each side of the southern peninsula's slab, two Reef Points: one is actually the now famous The Bay surf spot &, we call the one on the north side of the slab The Reef. A perfect wave all year-round which breaks on the left-corner of the slab, good spot when smaller conditions, especially in summer time and with southern swell as well.
