Surf spot guide Β· Central Morocco, Morocco
Right-hand rock-and-sand point south of El Jadida with a fallback beach next door when the point is flat.
Sidi Bouzid is a right-hand point break south of El Jadida on Morocco's central Atlantic coast. The wave wraps around an uneven mix of reef and sand, producing steep medium-paced walls in the 50 to 100 metre range with the bottom-up power typical of a welling point. It works through all tide stages and handles a wide size window from waist-high up to head-and-a-half plus, with W through N swells lighting it up best when a south-easterly offshore grooms the faces. Sitting just south of the historic Portuguese port city of El Jadida, the spot doubles as a summer resort beach and gets the most attention from June through September. A second beach a short walk along the shore offers a fallback when the point refuses to break, broadening the options on inconsistent days. Lifeguards patrol the main beach in season. The crowd reflects the resort traffic - busy on weekends and through the summer holidays, quieter midweek and during the cooler shoulder months.

Short drive south from El Jadida down the coast. The main resort beach has lifeguards in season. A second beach a short distance along the shore serves as a backup when the point is not producing.
