Typical, not a forecast. Reanalysis wind misses some local thermal winds, so a spot known for an afternoon breeze may do better than this.

About Azemmour

Known for kitesurfing, by the OpenStreetMap map of the area. The shore faces NW, so wind from the SE blows out to sea (our estimate from the coastline).

Water about 20°C: 2 mm shorty. Typical sea temperature for the time of year, not a forecast.

A spot for kitesurfing, as OpenStreetMap maps it, on a shore facing NW. Wind from the NW blows onshore, wind from the SE blows out to sea, and wind from the NE or SW runs along the shore. It is exposed to the open sea. The sea floor shelves very gently: 10 m deep about 1.0 km out (1 in 104). The sea is about 17°C in February, its coldest month (3/2 wetsuit), and 23°C in August, its warmest (2 mm shorty). For kitesurfing at intermediate level the best months are usually March, April and May, with about 1 good days in 7. From the weather of past years. The town to stay in is El Jadida.

The score is the conditions only: the journey, the price and the partners never change it (how we score, how we earn).
