The northeast trade-wind is here named ‘Charki’. It blows all year round and increases from mid-March until mid-September It reaches force 7, between 4 and 5 at other times. In winter, the trade-wind is less consistent and comes from other directions.
The waves are exceptional from spring to fall. Recommended sail size is 3.7, 4.2 and 4.7 m2, and a 5.0 may also be useful in winter. Recommended board volume between 65 and 80 liters. Moulay is a perfect spot to jump and surf the waves. You can get help from the locals to master your most difficult manouvers, and even compare your jumps with Boujmaa!
