Historical data
Location guide
Banana Point in Morocco is renowned for its surfing conditions favored by both beginners and professional surfers. It is located near the Agadir region, specifically in Taghazout village, a place famous for its expanding surfing culture. The surf spot gets its charming name from the banana plantations that sprawl across the nearby land, offering a breathtaking view while out on the water. One of the fantastic features of Banana Point is that its waves are consistent throughout the year. This regularity is thanks in part to its exposure to the North Atlantic swells - the primary swell source - which cause the waves to roll in consistently. The waves are usually right-handers, enticing surfers with their smooth formation. The point has been a favored training ground for newbie surfers due to its soft, forgiving waves. For the more seasoned surfers, it's the winter months that bring the most exciting conditions. The swells tend to be more significant and more powerful at this time, creating waves that can reach up to 12 feet in height. Conditions can vary, but generally, the rideable wave size can start from 2 feet and upwards, leaving practically no day without surf. The spot itself is protected from northerly winds and can handle more than average winds which may make other spots less appealing. Plus, the sandy beach makes for a safe and pleasant paddle out back, and the absence of rips and currents make the water relatively safe. However, it’s still important for surfers to remain wary of their surroundings and aware of their capabilities. It’s also worth noting that the Moroccan sun can be quite intense, especially during summer, so don’t forget sun protection. In terms of crowd, Banana Point does attract a good number of surfers, especially on weekends and holidays. Nevertheless, the congeniality between surfers is heartening, helping to maintain a friendly vibe in the lineup. So, whether you're a seasoned surfer looking for winter thrills or a beginner looking to cut your teeth on a warm, consistent break, Banana Point is just the place for a memorable surfing experience. Its positive points far outweigh any possible downsides, making it a must-go destination for any surfer.
