Hash Point - surf spot statistics

Hash Point in Morocco is a consistent surf spot with solid groundswell dominance, particularly from autumn through early spring. The best months for surfing are November through February, when groundswell probability is highest (77–93%), swell size averages 1.3–1.5m, and good wind conditions occur roughly half the time (48–53%). Winter months (December–February) offer the most powerful and cleanest conditions, though winds can still be variable (47–52% onshore). March and October are good transitional months, with strong groundswell persistence (77–83%) and decent wind windows (44–51%). From April onward, conditions decline as wind swells take over, peaking in summer (June–August) when groundswell drops below 20%, swell size diminishes (1.0–1.1m), and onshore winds dominate (62–72%). September marks the beginning of the return to better swells, though winds remain challenging. Advanced surfers will prioritize winter for reliable power, while intermediates may find late autumn or early spring more forgiving. Summer is generally weak and wind-affected, best suited for beginners or alternative water sports.

May at Hash Point, Morocco, offers consistent surf with an average swell height of 1.2m and a decent period of 9.9s, providing well-formed waves for intermediate to advanced riders. The swell direction is predominantly from the WNW and NW, with the largest waves (1-2.5m+) coming from these directions. About 31% of the time, winds are favorable for surfing, generally light to moderate (0-20kph) and often from the north or northeast, which helps keep conditions clean. However, stronger winds can occasionally disrupt the lineup, especially when blowing from the NNW or W. The wave size distribution shows that 40-50% of the time, waves are in the 0.5-1.5m range, while larger sets (1.5m+) occur less frequently but are still reliable enough for good sessions. Overall, May is a solid month with a mix of manageable mid-sized waves and occasional punchier conditions, best suited for surfers comfortable with varying swell energy. Wind luck plays a role, but when it aligns, the spot works well.
