Hazards

SANDBAR Open sandy beach break — banks respond well to N/NE swell events on this stretch.
RIP N/NE swell builds a beach-break rip on bigger days — no lifeguard, paddle wide of the darker channels.
ISOLATED Quieter and more remote than the Al Hoceima city beaches — come self-sufficient.
OFFSHORE WIND Best with N wind blowing offshore here — the orientation differs from the other Al Hoceima beaches further east.
