About This Spot
Sidi Abdellah is a sandy beach break located on Morocco's Atlantic coast facing west toward open ocean. The spot features a wide beach with moderate wave exposure and a lagoon system visible in the satellite imagery behind the coastal dunes. The area shows mixed conditions with visible seagrass beds and rocky structures that create variable water conditions. With average winds of 7.5 knots and low reliability (11.5%), this is primarily a fair-weather spot best suited for beginners practicing in light wind conditions. North winds (0°) provide side-shore conditions parallel to the coast. The shallow nearshore zone and moderate wave heights (1.72m average) make this accessible for learning, though the presence of submerged vegetation and reef structures requires local knowledge. Water conditions are rough with visible current patterns. Best conditions occur during wind events from the north when offshore conditions are absent. This spot is suitable for beginner to early intermediate kiters seeking calmer, protected conditions.
Hazards & Safety
Shallow water near shore
Visible submerged vegetation or seagrass beds
Rocky outcrops and reef structures in nearshore zone
