Iftane

Iftane is a beach break located on Morocco's Atlantic coast facing west into open ocean. The spot features a sandy beach with an adjacent shallow lagoon system that provides protected water conditions. The lagoon creates a natural buffer against large swells, making this suitable for skill development. Wave heights average 1.64m with rough water conditions typical of Atlantic exposure. The spot experiences low wind reliability (28.1%) with modest average winds of 9.5 knots, suggesting consistency challenges. Best conditions occur with north or south winds that run parallel to the coastline (side-shore). The shallow lagoon area requires awareness of tidal changes and depth variations. This spot suits beginners to early intermediates seeking protected conditions and smaller waves. The combination of beach break and lagoon system offers versatility but demands attention to tidal timing and wind direction to optimize riding conditions and safety.
