Imsouane (Cathedral Point) Surf Guide
Positioned on the north side of Imsouane Bay, Cathedral Point is a pointbreak that also features some fun beach peaks. Being on Imsouane’s northern peninsula, Cathedrals is more exposed to swell than the bay. The point offers a righthander that’s perfect for more experienced surfers, with steep, powerful waves and barrel sections at low tide. Contrary to the laid-back vibes of Imsouane village and the bay, the point will get your adrenaline pumping—especially on bigger swells. The beachbreak offers several fun peaks at high tide, perfect for intermediate surfers. There’s also a lefthand reef break at high tide.
