Taghazout Bay is a beach and point break at Central Morocco, Morocco. It works best on a NW swell and a E wind. The tide window is mid.
The median wave period is 7.1 seconds, and 13% of days reached 10 seconds or more. Period is the interval between waves and the better guide to their power: a longer one carries more energy whatever the height. Ten seconds is the usual line between locally generated wind swell and swell that travelled. Across the last 93 days the median wave height at Taghazout Bay was 1.04 m, with the largest fifth of days above 1.28 m. Waves reached a metre or more on 62% of those days. The swell arrived most often from the NW. These figures describe the recent season at this coordinate, not a long-term average.
The seabed falls away at 0.2% over the first 500 m seaward, reaching 10 m of water 0.5 km out. The beach faces SW, so that is the direction open to incoming swell.
