Conditions at Sidi R'bat in August
August: More of the Same Summer Windswell
August mirrors July in almost every way. The average swell height drops slightly to 4-5ft (1.4m), the period stays low at 8.4s, and the swell direction is 95% from the NNW. With only 4% of the energy coming from the NW and essentially nothing from the WNW or W, there is no quality west swell reaching the beach. Wind conditions are equally one-sided: WNW dominates at 38.5%, W at 20.8%, and NW at 19.8%, with ideal offshore winds at just 3%. The ocean is as warm as it gets - 18.9°C - and air temperatures peak around 27.5°C with 0.16 mm/day of rain. This is prime beach weather, but for a surfer chasing clean, organized swell, August is one of the most frustrating months at Sidi R'bat.
