Sidi Kaouki

Sidi Kaouki is a beach break located on Morocco's Atlantic coast facing west toward open ocean. The spot features a wide sandy beach with a shallow lagoon system running parallel to shore, separated by sandbars. Water conditions are rough with moderate wave exposure from Atlantic swells. The average wind speed of 8.4 knots is relatively light, and wind reliability at 21.8% indicates this is an inconsistent spot dependent on seasonal conditions. Best wind direction is from the north (0°), providing side-shore conditions along the coast. The water temperature averages 19.9°C, requiring a wetsuit year-round. This intermediate-level spot suits kiters comfortable with variable conditions and shallow-water navigation. The lagoon offers some protection from larger Atlantic swells, but shallow areas and changing depths require awareness. Prevailing conditions are light, making this spot dependent on strong wind days. Local knowledge of lagoon channels and seasonal patterns is valuable for consistent sessions.
