Right pointBeginnerMixed
The Bay, not Cathedral
The long right in the bay, not Cathedral. Imsouane is a fishing village on the north side of the Cap, a wide horseshoe, a takeoff that keeps going. Camps on the hill. The harbour is still a harbour.
When.
October to April
North Atlantic swell in winter. The bay holds a small day. Cathedral is the other wave, around the headland.

Worth knowing.
- 1. This page is the bay. Cathedral is a different takeoff and a different surfer.
- 2. The inside can get busy with first-timers. Walk up the point if you want a cleaner section.
- 3. Winter is the window. Summer is smaller, still rideable in the bay, not why people stay a month.
- 4. Essaouira is the bigger town north. Agadir is the airport south.
Go.
Before you paddle.
- 1. Check local conditions before entering
