About This Spot
Moulay Bouzerktoun is a west-facing beach break located on Morocco's Atlantic coast near the town of Bouzerktoun. The spot features a sandy beach with a gentle slope and protected lagoon-like characteristics near the shoreline, transitioning to open ocean conditions. The coastline is backed by cultivated agricultural land and scattered vegetation. Visible kelp beds and rocky patches indicate a productive, temperate marine environment typical of the Atlantic Moroccan coast. Wind conditions are modest with 9.2 knots average and low reliability at 23.7%, making consistent sessions challenging. Wave heights average 1.80m, suitable for beginners and those practicing fundamental skills. The presence of sandbars and shallow water near shore requires awareness of tide-dependent conditions. This spot is best suited for beginner kiters seeking calm, forgiving conditions in light winds. Side-shore conditions occur with northerly winds. The low wind reliability means sessions should be planned around forecasted wind events rather than expecting consistent daily wind.
