Information about surfing in this area

Morocco is the land of the pointbreak, and the coastline around the Agadir area is riddled with spots. This ensures surfing uncrowded waves. If you are struggling to get waves in a crowded lineup in Morocco you are a fool, and a lazy one at that. There are empty waves around every corner and during the winter months they are all firing. Do travel in the autumn and winter months as Morocco is flat / inconsistent during the summer. Here are the Moroccan Surf details and water temperatures on a handy little graph. <div align="center"><img src="http://www.surfing-waves.com/travel/images/moroccotemp.gif" alt="morocco water temperature and swell size"></div>
