About this break
Level

Type
Point
A world-class sand and rock right point just north of Safi's phosphate port, reckoned one of the best and longest barrelling waves on the planet when it fires. It needs a big WNW groundswell to break, then reels off long hollow tubes for up to several hundred metres at low tide with a north wind. Rare, fast and extremely heavy, for advanced surfers only.
Heads up. Heavy hollow barrels, shallow rock and sand, strong current, fickle and rarely on.

AboutRight now is the window. Waist to chest faces are holding steady on solid groundswell wrapping in from the right direction, and the falling tide is working in your favour, this is when Safi Garden shows its teeth. The north-easterly cross-shore wind at around 15 kilometres per hour is manageable at the dawn patrol hour, though expect it to freshen as the morning rolls forward and the sun climbs.
By mid-afternoon the swell fades to knee to waist and the wind swings north and strengthens to 24 kilometres per hour, cross-shore. The session is essentially done by lunch.
Tomorrow morning looks fair to good but smaller, peaking around knee to waist with the best window early on before the wind picks up again. The forecast sits on firmer ground than most Safi days, though the ocean rarely follows the model perfectly, treat the size as a guide rather than a promise, especially this far north where local bathymetry can surprise.
